maybe he has a mistake in his example in chapter 8.1 of his book?

He has a line of code that says

OSMutexCreate(9,&err);

I think maybe this should read

ResourceMutex = OSMutexCreate(9,&err);

I guess the question is do you need to create an OS_EVENT* type and set it eqaual to OSMutexCreate() ?

It must just be a mistake in the documentation. Can someone confirm?
