(...) As pointed by Albert Huang, you cannot call kill() with an "invalid" pid. Actually, the comment above kill() in tm.c says: //! kill a process /*! \param pid must be valid process ID, or undefined behaviour will result! The function updates (...)

two of your threads terminate shortly after being started (...) as far as I know, legOS provides no functionality for determining whether or not a thread is alive or not. You need to keep track of this yourself (e.g. using a variable/flag that gets (...) (23 years ago, 16-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

Hi again I have now totally stripped down my code to a minimum and I am still having problems with the code hanging up. I can see nowhere where there can be a fault. I am a long way from being an expert, but is it possible there is a bug in the (...) (23 years ago, 16-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

Ben I recommend you read the Howto from the sourceforge docs section, or even better buy the Extreme Mindstorms book (Extreme Mindstorms; D. Baum, M. Gasperi, R. Hempel, L. Villa; Apress; ISBN: 1893115844 ) . Both give a good explanation of legOS. (...) (23 years ago, 16-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

Thanks Albert (...) still (...) How do I check this? There are no other tasks that can kill threads apart from this one. I also checked process IDs after creation and before killing. Best regards, mike (23 years ago, 16-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

(...) You could try David Baum's (creator of NQC) simulator, found here: (URL) is 'very alpha', meaning that it's in its early stages of development and uses Java, so be ready to ask more questions :) Good luck and hope you get your RCX soon!

Another doubt: When I'm programming with NQC, is there a way to run the program (simulate its behavior actualy) without the RCX (because I don't have it yet)? Thanks, -- Paula Berger E-mail: pberger@terra.com.br paula@inf.pucrs.br ICQ#: 71133278 (23 years ago, 16-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

some suggestions: 1) random_delay = random()/1000000; LegOS uses 16 bit integers, meaning the largest value an integer can have is something like 65535. The above statement is meaningless 2) (...)
