task. h

UBaseType_t uxTaskPriorityGet( TaskHandle_t xTask );

INCLUDE_uxTaskPriorityGet must be defined as 1 for this function to be available. See the configuration section for more information.

Obtain the priority of any task.

Parameters

xTask

Handle of the task to be queried. Passing a NULL handle results in the priority of the calling task being returned.

Returns

The priority of xTask.

Example usage:

void vAFunction( void )
{
TaskHandle_t xHandle;

    // Create a task, storing the handle.
    xTaskCreate( vTaskCode, "NAME", STACK_SIZE, NULL, tskIDLE_PRIORITY, &xHandle );

    // ...

    // Use the handle to obtain the priority of the created task.
    // It was created with tskIDLE_PRIORITY, but may have changed
    // it itself.
    if( uxTaskPriorityGet( xHandle ) != tskIDLE_PRIORITY )
    {
     // The task has changed it's priority.
    }

    // ...

    // Is our priority higher than the created task?
    if( uxTaskPriorityGet( xHandle ) < uxTaskPriorityGet( NULL ) )
    {
     // Our priority (obtained using NULL handle) is higher.
    }
