Event Handling

Below the idle function you'll see a #[task] handler, a function. This task is bound to the POWER_CLOCK interrupt signal and will be executed, function-call style, every time the interrupt signal is raised by the hardware.

✅ Run the events application. Then connect a micro-USB cable to your PC/laptop then connect the other end to the DK (port J3). You'll see the "POWER event occurred" message after the cable is connected.

Note that all tasks will be prioritized over the idle function so the execution of idle will be interrupted (paused) by the on_power_event task. When the on_power_event task finishes (returns) the execution of the idle will be resumed. This will become more obvious in the next section.

Try this: add an infinite loop to the end of init so that it never returns. Now run the program and connect the USB cable. What behavior do you observe? How would you explain this behavior? (hint: look at the rtic-expansion.rs file: under what conditions is the init function executed?)
