$Log$ Revision 1.3 2008/01/31 09:38:15 haraldkipp Added return statement in main to avoid warnings with latest GCC.

Revision 1.2 2006/07/21 09:07:19 haraldkipp Use dev/board.h to determine output device.

Revision 1.1 2005/07/23 13:54:39 haraldkipp First check in

This sample demonstrates the usage of Nut/OS event queues. It further shows how an event queue can be used as a mutual exclusion semaphore.

Two additional threads are started, one with a higher and another one with a lower priority than the main thread.

The results are printed on the debug device. Each thread prints the current action in one of three columns. The first column is used by the highest priority, the last column by the lowest priority thread.
