/** \page Page_SchedulerOverview LUFA Scheduler Overview
*
* THE LUFA SCHEDULER IS NOW DEPRECATED AND WILL BE REMOVED IN A FUTURE RELEASE. EXISTING CODE SHOULD CONVERT
* TO STANDARD LOOPS AS SHOWN IN THE CURRENT LIBRARY DEMOS.
*
*
* The LUFA library comes with a small, basic round-robbin scheduler which allows for small "tasks" to be executed
* continuously in sequence, and enabled/disabled at runtime. Unlike a conventional, complex RTOS scheduler, the
* LUFA scheduler is very simple in design and operation and is essentially a loop conditionally executing a series
* of functions.
*
* Each LUFA scheduler task should be written similar to an ISR; it should execute quickly (so that no one task
* hogs the processor, preventing another from running before some sort of timeout is exceeded). Unlike normal RTOS
* tasks, each LUFA scheduler task is a regular function, and thus must be designed to be called, and designed to
* return to the calling scheduler function repeatedly. Data which must be preserved between task calls should be
* declared as global or (preferably) as a static local variable inside the task.
*
* The scheduler consists of a task list, listing all the tasks which can be executed by the scheduler. Once started,
* each task is then called one after another, unless the task is stopped by another running task or interrupt.
*
*
* If desired, the LUFA scheduler does not need to be used in a LUFA powered application. A more conventional
* approach to application design can be used, or a proper scheduling RTOS inserted in the place of the LUFA scheduler.
* In the case of the former the USB task must be run manually repeatedly to maintain USB communications, and in the
* case of the latter a proper RTOS task must be set up to do the same.
*
*
* For more information on the LUFA scheduler, see the Scheduler.h file documentation.
