FW: second alarm not triggering


Did you try out my suggestions below? It is easy to debug using SID - just
put a breakpoint in the ISR using GDB/Insight and then single-step. You can
even get SID to trace every instruction it calls although it does run rather
slowly.

I have had no problems in the past using SID built for PID target apart from
the fact that delays are stretched considerably. Have you tried reducing the
intervals to see if it works? Try running the 'twothreads' example and see
if that works. If it does, you must be doing something wrong in your
application code. If it doesn't work, check the operation of the simulated
timers in SID, check you are getting interrupts by looking at Timer ISR/DSR,
then check whether tick is being called.

Note that I have not used SID/eCos together for a while so perhaps things
have changed. If I get the chance I will try to rebuild SID/eCos system and
do my own tests but it will be unlikely this week.
