Why S32K3 do not add UART IDLE function?

Hi,All

I use UART IDLE to implement "UART receive indefinite length data".
But RTD2.0.0 don't have the idle function API,I need to change the code.
I wonder why S32K3_RTD does not implement idle function, is there any hidden danger? I find this feature very useful.

Regards,

Hi Xianlong,

the drivers usually do not cover 100% functionality of the device and this is the case of idle detection. There was no such requirement to support this feature in the drivers.

There are no issues with this feature. I'm afraid that currently the only option is to implement the functionality by yourself.
