[okl4-developer] Iguana Documentation

[Martin P. Lawitzky]

Hi,

currently I'm planning to create a multi thread project based on
L4/Iguana. I'm new to L4 and would like to ask you for some advice.

On
http://www.ertos.nicta.com.au/software/kenge/iguana-project/latest/userman.pdf
I found the Iguana User Manual version 
DRAFT Document Revision: 1.62 Date: 2005/04/04 01:01:32

Unfortunately, this document is pretty "under construction". 

In the first instance, I'm mostly interested in the possibilities to
create some threads and some IPC.
The manual mentioned above presents methods like create_thread() es I
expected.

Taking a look on the example
okl4_release_1.5.2/iguana/example/multithread/src
of OKL4 release 1.5.2, I found a completely different way of creating
threads somewhere in the SConscript.

My questions are:
1) Is an updated manual for Iguana aviailable? If yes, where?
2) Where are the methods used in the multithread example documented?
(e.g. iguana_getenv())
3) Where is the method of creating threads in the SConscript documented?
(how can priorities be set?)
4) Why is creating the threads in the SConscript the preferable way?


Thank you very much in advance,

Martin
