Hello I am working with stm32f3Discovery with FreeRTOS .I have created task with various priorities.I have to schedule that task in preemptive scheduling algorithum. so I have added 1.#define portUSEPREEMPTION 1 in portmacro.h and pass to vTaskStartScheduler(portUSEPREEMPTION) But code isn’t compiled because vTaskStartScheduler(void ) in task.c so how should i use preemptive scheduling algorithum..? my code

#include "FreeRTOS.h"
#include "task.h"
#include "stm32f3_discovery.h"
#include

Please refer to the online documentation and the many hundreds of pre-configured examples that are provided for you to use and reference. I'm not sure where you got the idea that you had to pass a parameter into vTaskStartScheduler(), because as you have said yourself the prototype for the function is void, and the online API documentation for the function shows it as a void function, and the example on the API documentation page showing you how to use the function does not show it taking a parameter, neither does any of the examples provided in the download. http://www.freertos.org/FreeRTOS-quick-start-guide.html http://www.freertos.org/a00132.html http://www.freertos.org/a00110.html#configUSE_PREEMPTION Please also note that all your task definitions are wrong too, so even if you start the scheduler using the correct semantics, you will end up in an assert() when the task attempts to exit without calling vTaskDelete( NULL ). Again all this information is provided for you.... Regards.

Thanks a lot for your valuable response.I have modified my code as per your suggestions.Now its working fine just I have to test it.
