SDK Manegement adds extra heap management files

[kl]

Hi

Using MCUXpresso SDK 2.7.0 and MCUXpresso IDE v11.1.1

Scenario:

1. Copy example evkmimxrt1064_freertos_hello
2. Compile, all works
3. Right click on project root in project explorer, select "SDK Manegement" -> "Refresh SDK components"
   1. Accept warning on FreeRTOS_Config
4. Compile. Failed
   1. The update adds heap management modules for heap_1, heap_2, heap_3 and heap_useNewlib for no reason.

The same happens if you try to add support for modules like gpt.

But why? Anything done wrong? Workaround?

If I just delete the heap_1.c, heap_2.c, heap_3.c and heap_useNewlib.c files, I can compile. But rerunning "Refresh SDK components" recreates them. So it is not very nice.

Hi Kasper,

This looks like a configuration problem with the Refresh SDK components option. There are a number of heap strategies and you need to define which one you want to use. Presently all are enabled and so the same subroutine is present a number of times so it will fail to link. Unfortunately, I believe deleting the files is the only option to fix this.

Please check the below link.

Have a great day,
