XCore Exchange

Hi! I am trying to find a way to stall all the tasks/cores in the usb reference design from starting without rewriting too much of main(). I want the xmos to start up with a function on both tiles that check for a certain condition before they return and let the audio-cores start up.

Is this even possible? I know you cant have more than one par in a multi-tile project so the only thing i can see working is adding the function to every task-call, but it seems a bit wierd to have to do that. I want them to all wait for a single delay function.

The par{} construct does not have be used in the main routine.

Can you shift the par construct to another core? Then inside the main routine, perform your conditional check and wait for the condition to be TRUE -> then call the par{} construct in the other core. Please review Eric's example in the above link.

Aha. That sounds reasonable. Thanks!
