Keil Eval.boards with Raisonance Toolchain

Hi,

Is it possible, or are there any experiences in using the Raisonance tools (Ride7, RKit-ARM, RLink JTAG-Adapter) and of course FreeRTOS
on the Keil evaluation boards MCBSTM32 and/or MCB2388 ?

The boards seem to be interesting, but the free RealView MDK-ARM Evaluation Tools seem to be too limited for evaluation together
with FreeRTOS.

Thanks, Ralf

If you are using an R Link or an FTDI interface I don’t see any reason why it would not work. Did you check the Raisonance forums? I think they are quite active.

There seems to be no problem with MCBSTM32, but Ride does not support LPC2388.
In the mean time  I found a an interesting FreeRTOS port "NXP LPC2368 with Eclipse and GCC development tools".
The catch is the "Macraigor Wiggler compatible JTAG interface". -> Parallel port !

Could this be the alternative solution: http://elmicro.com/de/armjtag.html

More recently I have successfully used http://www.amontec.com/jtagkey-tiny.shtml with OpenOCD on an LPC2000.
