What am I doing wrong that I deserve this message?

Rebooting...

There isn’t very much in this tasks, so what’s going on that I don’t see (any more)?

void selectRadioTask(void *param)
{
  Serial.printf("\n--- 1. select Radio Task ---\n");

  // for-ever-loop
  // =============
  //
  for (;;)
  {
    Serial.printf("--- 2. select Radio Task ---\n");

    vTaskDelay(1000 / portTICK_PERIOD_MS);

  } // end for-ever-loop()

}   // end selectRadioTask()

Can you get this decoded with the same two platformio.ini instructions as in Unknown abort() of execution - #4 by maxgerhardt? I also don’t see how only this code could create such an issue on its own, maybe there are effects from other code.

Max,
A few things:
1.
CoolTerm doesn’t give the output you mentioned.
2.
The “normal” terminal in VSCode is “unstoppable” in scrolling over the screen, so it takes some hassle to get this print.

When I examined this output I see that “rotaryEncoderTask.cpp:140” is mentioned. Looking at that line I see a pointer I created:
struct Coder *pCoder;
3.
When I removed the pointer and use the “normal” variable coder - to which the pointer is pointing to - everything works again without any problem at all.
4.
That leads to the unexpected situation that PlatformIO accepts and evaluates the pointer anywhere in the program without problem, the program compiles without hesitation, but crashes when executed.
5.
If you want to see this in action I gladly put the code on GitHub.

Yes that would be great. I suspect you may forgotten to set the pointer to a value (like, pCoder = new Coder;) or there is a race condition in setting that global variable.

5

There you are.
I’m curious.

Max,
Looking again at my code; I think you’re right.
I don’t find a statement like: pCoder = &coder;
So, my code has the pointer, but that pointer never points to the address of the variable coder.
Thank you!
