NAME

       rtapi_task_new - create a realtime task

SYNTAX

       int  rtapi_task_new(void  (*taskcode)(void*),  void  *arg,       int  prio,  unsigned long
              stacksize, int uses_fp)

       int rtapi_task_delete(int task_id)

ARGUMENTS

       taskcode
              A pointer to the function to be called when the task is started

       arg    An argument to be passed to the taskcode function when the task is started

       prio   A task priority value returned by rtapi_prio_xxxx

       uses_fp
              A flag that tells the OS whether the task uses floating point or not.

       task_id
              A task ID returned by a previous call to rtapi_task_new

DESCRIPTION

       rtapi_task_new creates but does not start a realtime task.  The task  is  created  in  the
       "paused"  state.   To  start  it,  call  either  rtapi_task_start  for  periodic tasks, or
       rtapi_task_resume for free-running tasks.

REALTIME CONSIDERATIONS

       Call only from within init/cleanup code, not from realtime tasks.

RETURN VALUE

       On success, returns a positive integer task ID.  This ID is used for all subsequent  calls
       that need to act on the task.  On failure, returns an RTAPI status code.
