How to put the AN429 remote update into my design?

Hi, I'm new to NIOS II and I've been reading the AN429 and the simple socket server example last week. The OS and niche looks fun. 

 

It seems like I can modify the SSS project by adding the remote update task. Did anyone try it before? 

 

My utimate goal is to have a project with remote update, a task like SSS, a task to access the flash through internet and a non-internet flash accessing task. I guess I need 4 tasks. I really need some guide line before I start it. It will be good if I can keep adding task without modifying the sample code. (except adding flag and mutex) Thx.

I have done what you are trying to do. Except I only had one task for everything. I basically modified the SSS example to be my own server that I could send whatever data I wanted to across. It's not something I can really tutor you on. How much experience do you have programming with sockets? Have you done any kind of packetized data transfer before (USB, serial, ethernet)?

Hi, thanks for your reply. I'm the system designer of the project, there will be someone doing the software part. I just wonder if anyone has done it before and if "4 tasks" is possible. Thx.
