5.7 System Con.guration Information Management Functions
System con.guration information management functions are provided for storing, managing and making available information about the system con.guration (maximum number of tasks, etc.) and any other information. These are not functions for adding or modifying information when the system is running. How the system con.guration information is to be stored is not specified here, but it is generally put in memory (ROM/RAM). This functionality is therefore not intended for storing large amounts of information.
Standard definitions are specified for some system con.guration information, but additional information may be defined and used for applications, subsystems, or device drivers. The format of system con.guration information consists of a name and defined data as a set.
- Name
The name is a string of up to 16 characters.
Characters that can be used (UB) are a to z, A to Z, 0 to 9 and (under bar).
- De.ned data
Data consists of numbers (integers) or character strings.
Characters that can be used (UB) are any characters other than 0×00 to 0×1F, 0×7F, or 0xFF (character codes).
Sample:
