Will FreeRTOS viewer work with S32 Design Studio

[adam_hamilton]

My current IDE is

S32 Design Studio for ARM

Version: 2018.R1
Build id: 180815

The FreeRTOS version I use is 10.2.1

I can't get FreeRTOS plugin to work properly. I have also applied update 10 and still no help.

I get an empty task list and I get exceptions when I try to view the queues. I can view the heap usage though.

Below is some of the log output

Will there be an update to this plugin?

I believe it works with MCUXpresso and I tried importing my project there but it would not debug.

Thanks

Hello, 

I have the same issue as here reported and I couldn't fix it following the recommendations.

Our current IDE version is: S32 Design Studio for Power Architecture. v2.1

FreeRTOS version: 10.0.1

TAD version: version 1.0.1 (201610061345)

When I try to open the FreeRTOS list view I get the next TAD log:

14:57:28.296 EXCEPTION: [TaskFactory] ReadingException in class "com.nxp.freertos.gdb.tad.controller.tasklist.TaskFactory" at 108. line when calling method "getSize(pxReadyTasksLists)" com.nxp.freertos.gdb.tad.controller.TadFactory.getSize(TadFactory.java:118) com.nxp.freertos.gdb.tad.controller.tasklist.TaskFactory.getData(TaskFactory.java:108) com.nxp.freertos.gdb.tad.model.TadModel$3.execute(TadModel.java:257) com.nxp.freertos.gdb.tad.model.TadModel$4.run(TadModel.java:366)

I select the OS awareness option to FreeRTOS on my debug configuration and I modified my FreeRTOSConfig.h to match the attached suggestion. But I still get the same error. 

I attached my current FreeRTOSConfig.c.

Hi, 

I downloaded your config header and I'm trying reproduce your issue. I'll let you know if I find something.

Hi Adam, 

I'm trying reproduce your issue, but no success.  I used FreeRTOS example from SDK RTM v3.0.0. - SDK supports FreeRTOS version 10.0.1 - that's may be cause of your issue. 

Anyway - I slightly modified FreeRTOSConfig.h (in attachment) and enabled FreeRTOS in Debug Configurations -> OS Awareness.

Task list: 

Queue list: 

And here is TAD log from my machine:
