Kill Overview

Use Kill to view and terminate an eRTOS process.

Important: It is recommended that you gracefully stop an eRTOS process rather than terminate it. When a process is terminated, internal objects may not be cleaned up correctly, which may result in an unstable kernel state. You should only terminate a process as a last resort.

To terminate an eRTOS process:

  1. Locate the process ID of an eRTOS application by typing Kill at the command prompt.
  1. Type the following at the command prompt:

Kill process_number

process_number is the process ID created by the kernel to identify the process.

Examples

To terminate the eRTOS process with an ID of 1003, type:

Kill 1003
