CLI over UART Unresponsive

Nope, what I ended up doing was using the FreeRTOS+ source code which contains its own CLI module. I brought that source code into my project and connected it to the SDK peripherals. Its a very similar API to the SDK CLI

Hi Dave,

It looks like I'm facing a similar problem to yours. I had filed this issue: https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/48934/logging-over-cli-with-freertos but did not get any responses from the community.

Were you able to find a way to get CLI working with FreeRTOS?

Thanks,

Wael

Yes, CLI UART with FreeRTOS is not fully compatible, as indicated in your other case a couple of months ago(id 220382). Some issues was fixed in SDK 15.3, e.g. app_timer_start() implementation for freertos (app_timer_freertos.c) asserting when called in UART interrupt. But there could also be other issues.

Is the CLI module known to be incompatible running in freeRTOS?

I think this is likely because the CLI mode doesn't like to run along side freeRTOS. It only response to Received user input when the RX ring buffer size number of characters is received. Once this is exceeded a second time the module ASSERTs
