Hi All,

as written at www.qnx.com:

"So what is a realtime platform anyway?

Realtime platform - a hybrid
that represents a cross
between a realtime operating system
and a platform OS"

I understand nothing!
What is “a cross between a realtime operating system and a platform OS”
???
What is the ‘platform OS’ ? NTO2.1 is the core of QNX RTP … isn’t it??

Why is it not mentioned??

Regards

Armin

plaform OS: an OS for a pair of plaforms? no. Like Windows/UNIX/MacOS
