NuttX-6.23
|
|
----------
|
|
|
|
The 90th release of NuttX, Version 6.23, was made on November 5, 2012,
|
|
and is available for download from the SourceForge website. Note
|
|
that release consists of two tarballs: nuttx-6.23.tar.gz and
|
|
apps-6.23.tar.gz. Both may be needed (see the top-level nuttx/README.txt
|
|
file for build information).
|
|
|
|
This release corresponds with SVN release number: r5313
|
|
|
|
Note that all SVN information has been stripped from the tarballs. If you
|
|
need the SVN configuration, you should check out directly from SVN. Revision
|
|
r5313 should equivalent to release 6.23 of NuttX 6.23:
|
|
|
|
svn checkout -r5313 svn://svn.code.sf.net/p/nuttx/code/trunk nuttx-code
|
|
|
|
Or
|
|
|
|
svn checkout -r5313 http://svn.code.sf.net/p/nuttx/code/trunk nuttx-code
|
|
|
|
Additional new features and extended functionality:
|
|
|
|
* RTOS: If both atexit() and on_exit() are enabled, use on_exit() to
|
|
implement atexit(). Updates for RGMP 4.0.
|
|
|
|
* Binfmt: Add support for loading and executing ELF binary modules from
|
|
a file system.

|
|
the Shenzhou IV board.
|
|
|
|
* C Library: Support is now included for the add-on uClibc++ C++
|
|
standard library support. This includes support for iostreams, strings,
|
|
STL, RTTI, exceptions -- the complete C++ environment. (uClibc++ is
|
|
provided as a separate add-on package due to licensing issues).
|
|
|
|

|
|
