+ The MPU port is not supported in this revision number.
+ The documentation for the static allocation functions in the header files has not yet been updated for this revision.
Kernel updates:
+ Simplify the static allocation of objects implementation.
+ Introduce configSUPPORT_DYNAMIC_ALLOCATION in addition to the existing configSUPPORT_STATIC_ALLOCATION so FreeRTOS can be built without providing a heap at all.
Demo application updates:
+ Update the demos to take into account the new configSUPPORT_DYNAMIC_ALLOCATION constant.
+ Add an MSVC demo that only uses static allocation, and does not include a FreeRTOS heap.
+ Update the MSVC project to use both configSUPPORT_STATIC_ALLOCATION and configSUPPORT_DYNAMIC_ALLOCATION.
+ Update the MingW project to use only configSUPPORT_DYNAMIC_ALLOCATION.
Links to a documentation page for each demo are provided on the following
URL: http://www.freertos.org/a00090.html
Each RTOS port has a demo application to demonstrate it's use.
+ The Demo/Common directory contains the demo application files as described on
the http://www.FreeRTOS.org WEB site. Each file creates one or more tasks.
The files in the Demo/Common directory are used by every demo application for
every port.
+ All the other directories contain a project or makefile for the demo
application targeted at a particular microcontroller.
For example, if you are interested in the ATMega323 demo application for
the WinAVR tools then the AVR_ATMega323_WinAVR directory contains the
relevant makefile. The makefile includes files from the Demo/ATMega323
and the Demo/Common directories. If this is the only port you are
interested in then all the other directories can be ignored.
