Hi

Starting another thread just to discuss this method's name. I wonder if the config part is more important than the static allocation of resources part. Which should be emphasized in the name?

From config puts focus on the attributes part. With static resources or similar puts emphasis on the other part.

With config is more general but is there another mode of operation? Seems the static nature is more important and the name should.emohasize that.

I don't really like the name rtems_task_create_from_config(). The key feature of this directive is that a user-provided thread storage area is used instead of a system-provided. That the parameters for this new directive are contained in a configuration structure is just an API choice. We could also use a function with nine parameters.

I also don't like the wording "static" in this context. What we need is a directive name for "create an Classic API task with a user-provided thread storage area".

My favorite is still rtems_task_build().
