App Scheduler Added To Secure DFU in SDK 12.2

[WestCoastDaz]

I'm in the process of migrating to SDK 12.2 and I noticed that nfu_dfu_settings.c now includes app_scheduler.h and makes a call to app_schedule_execute().

How do I use this with FreeRTOS running on my application? Should I just #ifdef this out when used with FreeRTOS? It seems like this file needs to be refactored since it already has this issue logged against it devzone.nordicsemi.com/.../

Thanks, Darren

Hi Darren,

I'm not sure why app_schedule in the bootloader has anything to with RTOS in your application. They are 2 separate applications.

Hung,

Yes, I'm aware that the applications are separate but when implementing buttonless secure DFU you need currently need to to add nrf_dfu_settings.c because ble_dfu.c calls it and nrf_dfu_settings.c includes the app scheduler.

My question is moot now after reading these posts devzone.nordicsemi.com/.../ and devzone.nordicsemi.com/.../

We am going to switch from using the flash write back to using GPREGRET since I prefer this method.

That sounds good Darren. We are also re-design the buttonless application. I don't think app scheduler should be required in the application. This limits the app's flexibility.

Hung,

Any idea when the updated buttonless application will be completed?

Cheers, Darren
