+# Object Manager
+
+The FSFW is an object-oriented framework and uses the concept of classes and objects to model the
+satellite. Usually, every non-trivial object in the flight software is assigned a 32-bit object ID.
+This ID is then used as an address field for various command types.
+
+The framework also has a global singleton class to store global objects and retrieve them back
+in an arbitrary format (e.g. only a certain interface of an object) at a later point.
+
+The required interface of a class to be compatible to the object manager is the `SystemObjectIF`.
+The `SystemObject` class is a base class implementing this interface which is implemented
+by most base classes in the framework.
+
+# 1. Creating a user `SystemObject`
+
+In this chapter, a custom class will be created which is insertable into the global object manager.
+
+## Subtasks
+
+ 1. Create a custom class `MySystemObject` which implements the
+    [`SystemObject`](https://documentation.irs.uni-stuttgart.de/fsfw/development/api/objectmanager.html#systemobject) 
+    base class. Use the object ID 0x10101010. The second argument of the
+    `SystemObject` constructor can be used to disable object manager registration.
+    Use it to do exactly that.
+ 2. Override the `initialize` function and print out a test string in the function.
+ 3. Create a dynamic instance of that class on the heap using the
+    [`new`](https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/new) keyword.
+ 4. Print out the object ID in hex format with 8 digits. You can use the `iostream`
+    manipulators [setw](https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/io/manip/setw),
+    [setfill](https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/io/manip/setfill) and
+    [hex](https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/io/manip/hex) to do this. You need
+    to include the `iomanip` C++ system header t ouse those.
+ 5. Call the `initialize` function of your dynamic object
+ 6. Explicitely [delete](https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/keyword/delete) your global object.
+    Forgetting to delete dynamic resources in C++ is generally a resource leak because the memory
+    claimed for creating that dynamic resource can not be re-used by the OS.   
+
+## Hints
+
+ - The `SystemObject` base class receives its object ID information by constructor argument.
+   Every base (parent) class which does not have a default (empty) constructor needs to be
+   initialized by the child class constructor. You can do this in the child class
+   [constructor member initializer list](https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/constructor)
+
+## Notes on memory and resource management
+
+In desktop programs, it is very common to simply dynamically allocate all required resources
+as they are required. It should be noted that dynamic memory allocation can show non-deterministic
+behaviour, which is non-favorable in real-time environments. Especially on smaller systems, where
+the RAM might be limited to something like for example 1 MB, one has to be really careful with
+dynamic memory management to not run out of memory during run-time. A possible side-effect
+of running out of memory would be that the allocation can take a possibly infinite time. Another
+side-effect which is probably more common is that the allocation simply fails and a `nullptr` is
+returned, which causes the application to crash unless every allocation call is checked.
+
+Omitting dynamic memory allocation altogether is not really a acceptable solution either unless
+dealing with really, REALLY (!) small systems like a PIC microcontroller. A good solution is
+to limit the dynamic memory allocation to the program initialization time and only use pre-allocated
+memory during run-time. This is what the FSFW or real time OSes like RTEMS generally promote and
+support.
+
+It is also important to keep in mind that `std` library containers generally allocate dynamically
+when inserting new entries.
+
+# 2. Initialize the object using the `ObjectManager`
+
+The `SystemObject` base class will take care of automatically registering the object at the
+global object manager as part of its constructor. The object manager stores all inserted objects
+by the `SystemObject` base class pointer inside a hash map, so all inserted objects can be
+retrieved at a later stage. The object manager is also able to call the `initialize` method of
+all its registered objects.
