MCUXpresso IDE v11.4.0 Now Available

Important Note. Previously announced MCUXpresso IDE v11.4.0 build 6224 has been replaced by build 6237 to address a potential problem related to the Eclipse updater mechanism which under some circumstances could inadvertently update the Java Runtime Environment to a newer version (jre-15) which is incompatible with the IDE. When this problem arises the MCUXpresso IDE will no longer start.
In the case you have previously installed MCUXpresso IDE build 6224, it is highly recommended to uninstall it and install build 6237 instead.

 

We are pleased to announce that MCUXpresso IDE v11.4.0 (build 6237) is now available. This is a major new version of the IDE and contains new features, enhancements and bug fixes over the previous versions, including latest announced MCUXpresso IDE v11.3.1.

Summary of Changes - version 11.4.0 - July 2021

  • Upgraded: Eclipse version to 2020.12 (Eclipse Platform 4.18.0 /  CDT 10.1.0).
  • Upgraded: IDE now integrates with OpenJDK11 (HotSpot engine,  v11.0.10).
  • Upgraded: GNU ARM Embedded Toolchain to 10-2020-q4-major.
    • Note that on top of GNU ARM Embedded Toolchain 10-2020-q4-major,  gcclib was recompiled using the bug fix from https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=99157. This patch prevents the run-time application corruption when using -mcmse support (applied for armv8m only).
  • Upgraded: Version v10 of MCUXpresso Config Tools.
  • Upgraded: Newer SEGGER J-Link software (v7.50, 32-bit version on Windows, 64-bit version on Linux/macOS).
    • Note that v7.50 comes with a 64-bit version of Windows. This 64-bit version is compatible and can be used if desired, but please note that the MCUXpresso IDE 11.4.0 installation does not include this and only partial testing has been possible due to timing of the release. If you prefer to use the 64-bit version on Windows:
      • Install 64-bit Windows SEGGER J-Link software
      • Go to IDE -> Preferences -> MCUXpresso IDE -> Debug Options ->  J-Link Options -> J-Link Server executable and change it from the existing path to the 64-bit version installation path, i.e. for the default installation path:  C:\Program Files\SEGGER\JLink\JLinkGDBServerCL.exe
  • Upgraded: Newer PEmicro plugin (v5.0.4).
  • Upgraded: FreeRTOS TAD synchronization with FreeRTOS v10.4.3.
  • Added: MKE1xZ support.
  • Feature: [Azure RTOS ThreadX] Added GDB thread awareness. The user is able to see threads in Debug view (only when using all-stop debug mode, similar to FreeRTOS usage) and also the register context associated with the current selected thread.

  • Feature: [Azure RTOS ThreadX] Added the ability to export trace data generated by the application at run-time. Decoding of exported data is done using Microsoft's Azure RTOS TraceX host-based analysis tool. Detailed procedure is described in the Azure RTOS User Guide.
  • Feature: [Energy Measurement] Added measurement/plot capability for MCU-Link Pro and on-board probes. Power measurement can be done using:
    • The new MCU-Link double channel measurement capability (simultaneously measured current and voltage);
    • Existing capability (used over LPC-Link2 probes) of caching voltage measurement to use on power computation over current measurement.

  • Feature: [Offline Peripherals] Added offline peripheral view. With this view, the peripheral registers can be inspected outside of a debug session. A device selector or the current project selection can be used to load register information for a particular device. Additionally, an SVD file can be imported.

lpcxpresso_supp_3-1626378963550.jpeg

  • Feature: [Debugger][MCU-Link] Differentiation of MCU-Link product names used when MCU-Link probes enumerate on USB:
    • Example:
      • base model: MCU-LINK (r0FF) CMSIS-DAP V2.219
      • Pro model : MCU-LINK Pro (r0C7) CMSIS-DAP V2.219
      • on-board  : MCU-LINK on-board (r0CF) CMSIS-DAP V2.219
  • Feature: [Debugger][J-Link] Added possibility to connect to a remote gdb server. In launch configuration -> J-Link Debugger tab -> GDB Server Settings, use Server execution option to set a remote server.

  • Feature: [Flash Programmer] External flash drivers for i.MX RT500 and i.MX RT600 available as examples in <install_dir>/ide/Examples/Flashdrivers/NXP/iMXRT.
  • Improvement: [Peripherals+] Peripherals+ view design was changed to support register group expansion directly into the Peripherals+ view, with no extra Memory View usage. Consequently, all elements shown before in Memory View are now available directly in the Peripherals+ view: values, bitfields, details. Reset value can be inspected as well together with the rest of the register elements.
  • Improvement: [IDE] Added a link to MCU-Link firmware page in 'Additional resources' menu entry under Help's main menu.
  • Improvement: [IDE] Toolbar naming and grouping: some icons re-grouped to reflect better categories and functionalities.
  • Improvement: [SWO] Adapt SWO trace config error to better reflect possible causes.
  • Improvement: [Flash Programmer] Use probe serial number instead of probe index when generating command line.
  • Fixed: [Flash Programmer][Command Prompt] Wrong usage of double quotes in GUI Flash Tool Command Line generates errors in command prompt execution.
  • Fixed: [Flash Programmer][J-Link][Command Prompt - Windows] GUI Flash Tool preview command - lower pane script not working when project name contains spaces.

  • Fixed: [Debugger][J-Link] Master core in multicore context will be attached (instead a regular debug session) to target after debugging.
  • Fixed: [Debugger][iMX RT595] Unable to flash application using crt_emu_cm_redlink raw command:
    • Added preconnectscript argument to stub;
    • Added --preconnectscript in the IDE's flash tool preview command window bottom;
    • Note: Preconnect scripts have been changed to use variable a% instead of p% to receive the probe index. The user might need to update custom preconnect scripts.

  • Fixed: [Energy Measurement] Format Y axis using a scale suitable for all displayed values (when having large Oy scale to represent data).
  • Fixed: [Energy measurement] Unable to exit probe discovery for boards with unsupported firmware for SWO.
  • Fixed: [Energy Measurement] The Energy measurement cannot collect if associated with a debug session and SWO is not initialized.
  • Fixed: [Energy Measurement] Making a selection on the plot may lose part of the status line.
  • Fixed: [Energy Measurement] Negative zero (-0.00) values shown.

Known issues

  • LPC55S16 TrustZone examples might not work with J-Link.
    • Workaround: Use LPC-Link2 FW on on-board probes for TrustZone projects.
  • SWO issues on iMX RT500 / iMX RT600 / LPC55xx when debugging with J-Link.
    • Workaround: Choose other debugger probes for SWO usage on that particular list of devices.
  • ITM console does not work as input console.
    • Workaround: none, this will be fixed in a further release version.
  • While installing the product, users may encounter a security alert from the operating system stating that some of the software comes from an unknown publisher.
    • Workaround: If this happens it is safe to allow access. This will be corrected in a future release.
  • In the case of an SDK component removal, the build process will fail if the component was also containing linked libraries.
    • Workaround: Manually remove the libraries referenced by that component at project settings -> MCU Linker -> Libraries, then rebuild.
  • 88MW320 with PEmicro and SDK version 2.9.5 or older: Debugging a project linked to flash with a PEmicro probe stops with faults at the start of the debug session. The target does reach main() if the execution is continued after the faults.
    • Workaround: To remove the faults, enable "Launch Configuration -> Startup tab -> Set PC (absolute hex address or symbol)" and set it to "ResetISR". This workaround should not be used when attaching.
  • "Open MCUXpresso SDK Builder" web link (from "Installed SDKs" view) is not correctly rendered within Eclipse's Internal Browser feature due to discontinued support for Internet Explorer for NXP web pages.
    • Workaround: Go to Preferences -> General -> Web Browser and select "Use external web browser".
