Using FreeRTOS with GDB's ARM simulator

Hi,

has anybody tried to run FreeRTOS in GDB’s ARM simulator? One potential problem I see is that FreeRTOS uses SWI, but this is already used by the simulator to communicate with the target.

I have stepped through a few things using the Insight simulator.

If you are using a simulator, why is the SWI used to communicate with a target?  When simulating there is no connection to the target.

I meant: SWI is used to communicate between simulated software and simulator, e.g. for writing to stdout.
