ThreadX support for STM32CubeMX2

I see the USBX/FileX/LevelX middlewares are supported in STM32CubeMX2, but ThreadX (formerly AzureRTOS, formerly ThreadX) itself is not? Is ThreadX support on the roadmap for the STM32C5 series? I really don’t want to have to go back to using FreeRTOS.

ThreadX is not part of the STM32CubeMX2 offer.

The question was, is it on the roadmap ?

 

EDIT: I guess that question is answered here:

TL;DR  ​@erik23  - No.

A complex system that works is invariably found to have evolved from a simple system that worked.A complex system designed from scratch never works and cannot be patched up to make it work.

Remember that ThreadX is an independent open-source project - not specific to ST.

The fact that it’s not in MX2 doesn’t preclude using it “manually” ...

    Hello ​@erik23 

    Thank you for your question.

    At this stage, STM32CubeMX2 supports FreeRTOS and ThreadX is not part of the STM32CubeMX2 offer.

    Best regards,

        Thanks for posting that link. From the ST Developer answer towards the bottom of that thread, it sure seems like the ThreadX license changing to MIT played a part, otherwise why call that out in the justification for dropping ThreadX.
