  • App exit failure (#480) https://github.com/nasa/cFE/issues/480

  • cFE_ES_RunLoop ExecutionCounter https://github.com/nasa/cFE/issues/567

    Discussed if we should have CFE_ES_RunLoop invoke CFE_ES_IncrementTaskCounter and increment the counter of the task that called it or just update the documentation to say not to call Runloop from a childtask.

    1. General concensus was to do both.
       a. Will remove a race condition b. Simplify code c. Ensure users to do attempt to call CFE_ES_RunLoop from a child task.
    2. Action to update CFE Developers Guide to clarify use cases for both CFE_ES_RunLoop & CFE_ES_IncrementTaskCounter

• osal

ADDED ISSUE - vxworks osapi.c OS_Milli2Ticks() problems #104 https://github.com/nasa/osal/issues/104 - APPROVED

General Discussion:

1. Talked about coming up with a “update checklist” for API developers: a. UTs b. Functional Tests c. Coverage Test d. Requirements e. Documentation
2. Jake is going to submit a pull request to deprecate several issues. I wasn’t fast enough to grab all of the issue numbers but it looked like you commented on all the applicable ones.
3. There was a lengthy discussion about an email chain…I jumped off before they finished.
