How to get FreeRTOS 8.2.0 reference manual?

I searched the forum and found an old post on the same topic. Because I’m a new user it won’t let me post a link to that topic. It’s freertos-8-2-0-reference-manual/7178. Unfortunately the link in that topic for requesting a copy no longer works.
How can I get the 8.2.0 reference manual?

Hello @DaveLowther, welcome to the FreeRTOS community.
Is this the forum post you are referring to?

We will try to find the v8.2.0 reference manual in the archives and get back to you.
Meanwhile, you can refer to the latest FreeRTOS-Kernel book and manual at FreeRTOS Documentation - FreeRTOS™

Thank you for the reply. No it’s not that post. It’s this one:

One comment, if you run Doxygen on that version of the code, you will get something very close to the reference manual. The manuals seem to be largely built on the comments formatted for Doxygen.

Thanks for the tip. I might try that. I’ve upgraded the ESP32 package and now have FreeRTOS 10.4.3, but I’ve found that if I use code shown in examples in the “Mastering the FreeRTOS Real Time Kernel version 1.1.0”, the code fails to compile. The main (perhaps only) one I’m having problems with ATM is vPrintLine() which the compiler doesn’t find. Nor can I find it in any of the FreeRTOS header files in the package. I’m just using Arduino Serial.print() for now

@DaveLowther, I have sent the v8.2.1 FreeRTOS reference manual to you via forum message. We will be adding it to the website soon. Hope it helps!

I just did that and it has produced what looks like very useful information. Thank you again for that tip.
