Re: [ECOS] help in tcp/ip stack !!!

Hi, Jonathan:
I trace it , and find a strange thing .
Before the memory exception happen , there are not any threads in the thread
queue ,system is runing  a thread which not exist . I trace the variable
"queue_map", and find :
     before that , system put idle thread  to sleep and give zero to
"queue_map", and make NONE thread in the
     running  queue .
At that time , I just connected one tcp to ecos , and the function
cyg_thread_delete hadn't run,ecos application is just doing write(),send
something through tcp . So I'm sure that the exception is not caused by the
application .

I think you maybe met this before , when you disigned ecos . because there
are many assertions about queue_map in the source code of mlqueue.cxx.
Can you give me some advice .It 's very important to me.
thinks.
Best regard .
