mg_wakeup cannot be used with FreeRTOS

[tianlei-zhang]

Hi,
I am trying to realize soft of multi-threading on FreeRTOS and found that mg_wakeup function does not exist if the architecture is set to FreeRTOS. It looks like the function is dependent on socket system support. Is this true?

Please see our documentation, and follow the guidelines in our tutorials.
From https://mongoose.ws/documentation/tutorials/core/multi-threaded :

To be able to use several threads, we need a mechanism that enables these threads to communicate with the main context in which the event manager is running. We can use a lock-free queue for that, though the event handler needs to poll for messages in that queue when it receives an MG_EV_POLL event. To have the event manager thread sleeping and wakeup when necessary, Mongoose provides a socket-based helper function.

Thanks Scaprile for the quick reply. This gives me a direction to explore.
