Porting CANFestival to RTEMS

[Ian Caddy]

We have ported CanFestival over to an RTEMS environment, although our 
system is a little different to normal.

We have a Base application which is linked with RTEMS.

Then we have other applications which the Base starts up depending on 
requirements / configuration.  We have a runtime link between these 
applications and the Base/RTEMS.

We have used CANFestival in one of these applications.  It is setup as a 
CAN master node.  If you have any specific questions I would be more 
than happy to help out.

regards,

Ian Caddy
