Slide 6 provides links to documentation, examples, recommendations for DFPs and BSPs

https://github.com/Open-CMSIS-Pack/devtools/issues/705
https://github.com/Open-CMSIS-Pack/devtools/issues/833

 

Action List:
Request for feedback on Linker Script Management:
- suggestions and proposals wanted for multi-core and TrustZone projects with secure and non-secure projects

Harmonizing the use of toolchains and debuggers:
- csolution project import by existing toolchains
- can csolution run in the background to share linker script management without creating duplication
- can we establish unified flash programming algorithms to be used by debuggers
- can we drive adoption of debug sequences across debuggers?

Harmonize software packs and interfaces
- collaborate on common packs for software stacks like LwIP and FreeRTOS avoiding duplication of effort and fragmentation.

Outlook:

CMSIS-Toolbox focus next week’s meeting 9th May 2023

CI test process for validation of reference applications 16th May 2023

No meeting planned May 23rd 2023
