Application framework / OS abstraction links

Keywords: Application framework, Application frameworks, OS abstraction / wrapper / design pattern patterns. Starting to use UML and design patterns. I hope to share experiences and links with those interested in using an application framework / application frameworks under FreeRTOS. I find I’m spending too much time writing state machines, inter task messaging sub systems, timer patterns.. and more time fixing them. It’s a well trodden path in the windows / linux / ecos / sphere, but not so much in the lightweight embedded side where volume prohibits such extravagance! So here is my contribution… This is the sort of thing I’m talking about http://apfw.sourceforge.net/ There are some good ideas / links here too.. http://www.eventhelix.com/RealtimeMantra/Patterns/ http://www.quantum-leaps.com/ A HSM.. used this to solve some knotty problems! http://www.embedded.com/columns/technicalinsights/10700829?_requestid=1102281 Please share experiences and links on this thread.
