I’m new to the FreeRTOS and I’ve being working on using it with a m52259evb from Freescale.
Since on my company we won’t use ColdWarrior, I did some modifications so I could use the Demo files from the 52233 with the 52259 under eclipse. It took me a little time to get the hang of it but now I can turn the evb LEDS on and off (I know it might not sound much but I’m getting used to the board and FreeRTOS).
However, for a short period I used MQX and when I did a printf, I could see the output on a minicom terminal connected to the board serial port. I belive the same should happen with FreeRTOS, but I can’t get the printf to work (it compiles and all but nothing shows up).
I did copy the printf-stdargs.c from the 52259 demo project but still nothing.
Am I missing some sort of configuration? I’m kinda lost here.
I don’t know the specific platform, but usually onboard hardware modules (like the UART/USART you plan to use) need be configured for operation.
In the USART case things most probably needed are:
-sync/async
-parity
-stop bits
-baudrate
-module enabled/disabled
