Stateviewer is a free kernel awarness plug-in, which displays more clearly Freertos state, task, etc...
It is an Eclipse plug-in.
Did anyone tried this plug-in in LPCXpresso ????

A hint on how to use this would be great.
I know: read the manual ... But I have too many manuals to read :confused:

Hi Rob,
Assuming FreeRTOS later than 5.2

In your application, call this function for every queue/semaphore .. etc that you create:

vQueueAddToRegistry( xCanRxQueue, (signed char*)"CanRxQueue" );

'Course you don't have to add them all, just the one's that you're interested in. Make sure that configQUEUE_REGISTRY_SIZE is set appropriately.

Then, when debuggering your app in Eclipse, choose:

Window--> Show View --> Other

Expand the item "OpenRTOS Viewer". Ctrl-click on both the Task Table and the Queue Table items, and click OK.

Whenever you hit the debugger's 'pause' button, the task and queue tables down below will show wot's 'appening

It is no longer installed by default - you need to download it from:

HTH!

You must download this from the High Integrity Systems website:
http://www.highintegritysystems.com/down-loads/stateviewer-plug-in/

(it is free, but it requires registration)

The Stateview is no longer shipped with LPCXpresso. Instead, you must download it from the High Integrity System website. It is a free download, but registration is required.

Search for "freertos stateviewer" and the link appears near the top of the list (I am unable to post the link at the moment, due to a problem in the forum)

[FONT=Arial]Thanks, I downloaded and installed Stateview from High Integrity Systems.
Unfortunately, the task window is always blank.
This did work with earlier LPCXpresso (FreeRTOS settings support viewer).

Any ideas ?
Thanks !

First of all, I would make sure that you have downloaded the latest version, and also check the release notes/user guide for information.

After that, you will need to contact High Integrity Systems as we are unable to directly support 3rd party plugins.

[FONT=Arial]Of course, as I downloaded it after your note, and yes I reviewed the release notes...[/FONT]

[FONT=Arial]Looks like I'll have to revert to LPCXpresso 4.60, where this worked properly...

We asked Richard Barry (Mr FreeRTOS) to investigate, and he confirmed that the plugin works with LPCXpresso 5.2.2.

Screenshot attached.

Edit:
Note that in LPCXpresso v5, you need to use the (DSF) variants of the views.
