Hi
I am a newbie to FreeRTOS, and use ST’s cubeMX. I heard that the cubeMX uses FreeRTOS library, but looking at the attached ,you can see I can only select CMSIS. A few things I am not sure about and hope someone can help?

  1. Is CMSIS and FreeRTOS (at www.freertos.org) 2 different libraries?
  2. If I create a bare project for my STM32 using cubeMX, will the free informaton at www.freertos.org be valid for my project?

Many Thanks
Scott

When you generate a project using CubeMX it comes with a CMSIS RTOS wrapper which maps CMSIS RTOS APIs to FreeRTOS APIs. You can still use FreeRTOS APIs directly and all the information provided on the freertos.org will still be applicable.

Thanks.
