Re: [ros-dev] [ros-diffs] [hbelusca] 63599: [TASKMGR]: Use the EndTask API to kill tasks.

+1 @ Ged, yes I prefer having a 1 or 0 instead of something else (in case somebody after
makes a “ForceEndTask == TRUE” comparison instead of just checking for non-zero value of
ForceEndTask).

They produce the same asm.

It's equivalent to writing "<something> != 0", although less readable.
I have no idea if compilers actually generate better code for it, or people just do it
because it's shorter to type.

Yes, the double negate is a little trick to give you either a 1 or a 0 instead of the
value of the operation.

Was it really meant to be '!!'?
