Title: uTaskerV1.4.2 M522XX release with utFAT file system
Post by: mark on January 04, 2010, 01:01:20 AM
Hi All

I am very pleased to announce that the uTaskerV1.4.2 M522XX release with utFAT is now available. Please watch the utFAT forum for technical details about the new SD-card support.

Here is an overview of the M522XX V1.4 versions and the additions in the latest release.
-0 Original release on 29.7.2009
-1 11.10.2009:
-2 New version 3.1.2010:
- uTaskerCombine V1.1 in \Tools allows Intel Hex file output beyond 64k size
- IRQ7 test adapted to avoid message queues
- random ID added to DNS to avoid problems with servers rejecting repeated IDs
- New permanent ARP entry option
- New application project "serial loader"
- Optionally add HTTP plain text header information - define HTTP_HEADER_CONTENT_INFO
- optional USE_PARAMETER_AREA support (as simple alternative to USE_PARAMETER_BLOCK)
- utFAT V1.0 SD card support added (integrated in FTP, HTTP servers plus DOS-like interface)
Note that SDCARD_SUPPORT is enabled by default and GLCD is disabled (M52259 EVB selected) - the heap size has been increased to enable utFAT together with other services

The new version is downloaded when you use the original project link and can be opened with the V1.4 password.
Intermediate versions are also available in case they are needed by adding -0 (for the original release), -1 for the second release, etc.

The new utFAT module's user's guide is still in progress (probably about 65% complete) but can already be accessed here:
http://www.utasker.com/docs/uTasker/uTasker_utFAT.PDF

I am very exited about the new capabilities that the utFAT adds to the project, opening up a variety of new opportunities. It is is fully integrated into the FTP and HTTP servers and has a comfortable DOS-like menu interface via UART, USB-CDC and/or TELNET. Take a look at the user's guide to learn more about it, and see how the simulator allows SD card operation together with the uTasker simulator!! If you have an SD card slot on your development board you can also immediately start using it as source for web pages or for logging data to.

Here's to a great start in the new year - all the best for 2010.

Regards

Mark
