SW4STM32(GCC) Upgrade to V9

Some of my support questions revealed that more capabilities are available in FreeRTOS V9.
I am usung SW4STM32 (GCC) cortex-M4. The IDE automatically setup the project to use FreeRTOS V8.2.1.

Comparing the auto-setup hierarchy with downloaded V9, showed that CMSIS_RTOS folder is missing from file hierarchy in FreeRTOS’s.

I assume this was added by the IDE so other parts of the sw modules can use FreeRTOS.

Do you know of any incompatibility issues?

Thanks.

I am sorry to ask this question here since it should be asked to the IDE team.
I found that this forum is more supportive than others.

The CMSIS wrapper is provided by ST. I cannot think of any reason why
it would break by upgrading to a later version of FreeRTOS as the
FreeRTOS versions are backward compatible.
