[ECOS] Question about the parameter passed to cyg_thread_create() fun?

[Robert Cragie]

The convention is to specify sizes in bytes (as this is what the sizeof()
operator in C does, e.g. sizeof(cyg_uint32) is 4).

So stack should be declared as 'char stack[SIZE];' and 'SIZE' should be
passed to the cyg_thread_create() call.

For example, see:
