Hi All
This thread contains all versions of the release code - the latest release is at the top and previous releases are maintained in descending order.
Please check the patch list after the release notes of each version to get latest information on workarounds or bug-fixes.
Release 1.4.3 - 24.05.2014 - download from attachment of
http://www.utasker.com/forum/index.php?topic=1697.msg6689#msg6689==============================================================================================
- CooCox CoIDE projects added
- IGMP v1 support on multiple networks and interfaces
- SNMPV1 and SNMPV2c with multiple manager support, MIB table according to rfc 1213 and user entry capability
- Memory debug interface improved and extended with storage display and modification capabilities
- LED simulation configuration has an additional control to define whether the LED is in the '0' or '1' state should the driving pin be configured as an input.
- Port details displayed when mouse hovers over connected inputs/switches on board
- Multi-colour LED colour mixture support in the simulator
- Standalone web server software upload support added to serial loader project
- Encrypted SD card loader support added
- Flexible serial loader (supporting mixtures of UART SREC, USB-MSD, SD-card and Web server)
- Multiple network IP/MACs displayed in simulator (test two IP addresses with "#defined IP_NETWORK_COUNT 2")
When using the USB-MSD loader in FAT12 mode (standard) the following #if def needs to be inverted (changed from #if !defined UTFAT16 to #if defined UTFAT16) so that read-back operates correctly:
- usb_loader.c line 1781 just after the line with if (iSoftwareState == SW_AVAILABLE) {
There is an error in the port input configuration macro _CONFIG_PORT_INPUT() which incorrectly sets the characteristics of the PORTx_15 pin
((characteristics << 23) & (((0x8000 & pins) << 15)| ((0x8000 & pins) << 16))));
To correct, change the 23 to 24:
((characteristics << 24) & (((0x8000 & pins) << 15)| ((0x8000 & pins) << 16))));
Release 1.4.2 - 09.03.2014
http://www.uTasker.com/software/V1.4/uTaskerV1.4.2_STM32.zip======================================================================
- Access to SD card (utFAT) controllable individually for HTTP and FTP; root directories can be changed during operation.

- define HTTP_SET_USERFILE_START_PAGE allow a specific user file to act as HTTP default start side
- define HTTP_SERVE_ONLY_USER_FILES allows serving exclusively user files - if a defined user file is not found display 404 error rather than a uFileSystem equivalent
- TCP/IP stack adapted for multiple interface and multiple network support - see
http://www.utasker.com/forum/index.php?topic=1748.0 for details about application compatibility.

- PHY_POLL_LINK support for designs without PHY interrupt line
- MEMORY_DEBUGGER adds a memory debugger (memory display, memory modify and memory fill) to the command line interface
- utFAT2.0 Beta
- Magic Ethernet frame reception support added
"The define _MAGIC_RESET_FRAME enables magic frame checking support.
Initially no checking is done until it is enabled by calling fnEnableMagicFrames(1).
It can later be disabled if require by calling fnEnableMagicFrames(0).
When active, each received Ethernet frame is checked directly in the receive interrupt routine for Ethernet payloads of 93 bytes in length.
The definition of _MAGIC_RESET_FRAME determines the magic frame pattern that is expected (repeated 16 bit value) - for example
#define _MAGIC_RESET_FRAME 0x1234
A magic frame must then contain this value repeated 24 times in the first 60 bytes of the payload (following the two Ethernet II MAC addresses) in order to be recognised.
The 61st byte in the frame can then be used as code to trigger an action. The value 0x01 causes the board to reset and place a code in the boot loader mail box so that the boot loader can recognise that the board was reset via use of a magic frame. The boot loader will normally remain in the boot loader mode (possibly for a limited period of time) to allow software updates to be accepted.
The final 32 bytes of the frame are undefined and can have any pattern. The user can use these as optional information bytes if required (for example, there is adequate space to pass 2 IPv6 addresses for special configuration purposes, etc.)
The handling interface has to be supplied by the user (eg. in application.c) as follows:
extern void fnMagicFrame(unsigned char ucType, unsigned char usOptionalDate[32]) {}"
- Add ELZET80_DEVICE_DISCOVERY
- ELZET80 Network-Utility for discovery and commanded reset to boot loader mode
- uTaskerCombine has new optional srec output as well as srec/ihex offset parameter
- Managed read and managed write support added
- PARAMETER_NO_ALIGNMENT option to improve parameter block efficiency when byte writes are not needed (the application must write aligned blocks)
- SNMPV1, V2c Beta
- UART 9 bit mode added to STM32 hardware interface.
- CAN driver added (including Komodo support as show in
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ha8cv_XEvco)
Patches:
In fnGetFlashSectorSize() as used by F2/F4 parts, the following line should be modified to stop the address of the first 128k program block being incorrectly assigned to the 64k block
if (ptrSector >= (unsigned char *)(FLASH_START_ADDRESS + (NUMBER_OF_BOOT_SECTORS * FLASH_GRANULARITY_BOOT) + (NUMBER_OF_PARAMETER_SECTORS + FLASH_GRANULARITY_PARAMETER))) {
should be
if (ptrSector >= (unsigned char *)(FLASH_START_ADDRESS + (NUMBER_OF_BOOT_SECTORS * FLASH_GRANULARITY_BOOT) + (NUMBER_OF_PARAMETER_SECTORS * FLASH_GRANULARITY_PARAMETER))) { (note the * instead of + !!!))
In simSTM32.h there are some incorrect reserved locations in the struct stSTM32_ETH. The following can be used to correct this. It doesn't affect operation but not all Ethernet controller registers can be viewed correcty in the simulator.

Release 1.4.1 - 02.03.2012
http://www.uTasker.com/software/V1.4/uTaskerV1.4.1_STM32.zip======================================================================
- Long File Name delete added using define UTFAT_LFN_DELETE
- USB OUT flow control improvements and USB-MSD and USB-CDC validated
Release 1.4.0 - 22.02.2012
http://www.uTasker.com/software/V1.4/uTaskerV1.4.0_STM32.zip======================================================================
- TFT Display added to STM3240G - with touch screen controller and backlight intensity control (PWM)
- SD card added to STM32F4 with SDIO controller (utFAT for web server/FTP etc.)
- USB FS device added with CDC, MSD and HID (mouse) modes. Mouse uses Joy-Stick via I2C expander when used together with TFT with touch.
- Serial Boot loader added to project (supported loaders are UART, SD-card and USB-MSD as shown in the (Kinetis) video
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H4TYM9jY2-g)
Beta 0.4 - 03.01.2012
http://www.uTasker.com/software/V1.4/uTaskerV1.4_STM32-4.zip==================================================================
- FTP client according to the FTP client user's guide:
http://www.utasker.com/docs/uTasker/uTaskerFTP_client.pdf (see video
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sZOCFLDfGTk&feature=youtu.be )
Note that the STM32F2/4 devices should use linker scripts that position the application code to start at 0xc000 offset (after reset vector at 0) so that two boot blocks in flash are reserved for use by the uParameterSystem. The STM32F1 uses the standard linker script since it has small granularity flash and doesn't require this special measure.
The project is set up for the STM3240G EVAL board - configure to suit your board if necessary.
When debugging with the STM3240G it is nevessary to disable the watchdog. This can be done by holding the KEY button pressed when the board is started.
Beta 0.3 - 18.12.2011
http://www.uTasker.com/software/V1.4/uTaskerV1.4_STM32-3.zip===================================================================
- STM32F4xx Ethernet, EXTI and Flash driver added
- SPI Flash support added
- STM3240G/STM3241G operational
- Revised storage media management integrated as detailed in
http://www.utasker.com/forum/index.php?topic=1687.0- Counter of number of times the start web side has been served added to the demonstration
- Display connection IPv4 address on start page of web server
- Last reset cause added to administration web page
- Web pages and documents with descriptions for STM32F1xx and STM32F4xx (note that F4 Flash is different to the F1 Flash and the internal uFileSystem uses sub-file configuration due to large granularity)
Beta 0.2 - 14.11.2011
http://www.uTasker.com/software/V1.4/uTaskerV1.4_STM32-2a.zip===================================================================
- UART/USART support extended to up to 6 interfaces
- port clear macro corrected for F2/F4 devices
Beta 0.1 - 09.11.2011
http://www.uTasker.com/software/V1.4/uTaskerV1.4_STM32-1.zip===================================================================
After a long period of limited interest in the project the new STM32F4xx Cortex M4 parts with FPU have sporned a great increase in interest in Cortex M4 generally. This Beta now includes support for
STM32F1xx/STM32F2xx and
STM32F4xx devices, VisualStudio 6.0 and VisualStudio 2010 simulation projects, as well as GCC, Rowley Crossworks, ATOLLIC TrueStudio, IAR and Keil uVision cross-compiler projects. A developer's guide can be found at
http://www.utasker.com/docs/STM32/uTaskerV1.4_STM32_Developers_Document.pdf.
The project is a forerunner to a release version to compliment the Kinetis Cortex M4 project which is also in the pre-release stadium.
Missing are mainly tests of advanced peripherals and present absence of boot loader projects.
It is envisaged that the Kinetis and STM32 projects will complement each other due to the accelerated uptake of the new Cortex M4 devices and the compatibility/portability between the two families of devices offering added project security to new users who can very easily move between the two in case of this necessity.
Beta 0.0 - 20.09.2010
http://www.uTasker.com/software/V1.4/uTaskerV1.4_STM32.zip=================================================================
The original Beta version for the STM32F107 Connectivity line. This contained only GCC and Rowley Crossworks targets as well as the simulator but has a useful list of features as shown in the video:
