Does ST periodically update the FreeRTOS version for the STM32CubeMX used with STM32F3 MCUs? When will FreeRTOS middleware distributed with STM32CubeMX be updated to version 10.0?

[GConn]

STM32CubeMX Version 4.26.1 (STM32Cube V1.0) which is the most recent version (as of late August 2018) available for download. It includes FreeRTOS version 9.0 as middleware. Will ST do updates to provide FreeRTOS updates such as FreeRTOS version 10.0? Or is a STM32CubeMX user expected to download the source code from https://www.freertos.org/FreeRTOS-V10.html and build the newer library(ies)?

Are the benefits of 10.0 compelling enough for you to want to do the port?

Change is disruptive in embedded, this isn't Adobe Flash

I suspect they will, but they are also juggling a dozen platforms, and hundreds of boards, and all the regression testing that should entail.

Hi @GConn​ ,

Of course, ST has planned the migration of the FreeRTOS version to V10 , but for the moment it is not yet supported in STM32F3 MCU.

For example, in the next CubeMX version (4.27.0), FreeRTOS V10 will be available on L4 MCU. It will be available progressively on other series.
