Support for MCUXpresso SDK #7

Open EcoApi opened 3 years ago

EcoApi commented 3 years ago

Hello, I saw in a branch, that there is a port of the sdk mcuExpresso of nxp. Is this portage abandoned ?

I work on eval kit mimxrt1160-evk and mimxrt1170-evk with a rtos other than zephir / freertos (my rtos is Micrium ucos3 / Cesium os3). It's cpu are dual core (Cortex m4 and M7). Is it possible to get help for a port on pio with mcuExpressoSdk ? If it doesn't already exist ?

Hi @rvaast ! That branch was just a proof of concept. There are no plans to implement it fully operational simply because of lack of support from the vendor side.

Hi @valeros,
OK. The mcuExpresso sdk will not be implemented in pio ?

Your POC had given good results? In my case mcuExpressoIde is heavy. Pio is much better

For the time being, support for the MCUXpresso SDK is not planned. You can contact the NXP team just to let him know you'd like to use their SDK with PlatformIO.

It worked just fine, but a lot has changed since that time, so I guess the implementation should be restarted from scratch.
