RE: FreeRTOS with NRFX: clock

Thank you Einar, in the mean time i already included the nrf_drv_clock, and is exactly as you say.

I think it would be necessary to make it clearer that drv is not really deprecated, as several examples still use it... I thought i needed to completely switch and leave it aside

Hi,

[quote user=""]would you recommend keeping old nrf drv clock or should i try to migrate all to nrfx... ? [/quote]

I recommend keeping nrf_drv_clock. In most cases the nrf_drv API just uses the nrfx drivers via preprocessor defines, so you end up with exactly the same code. This is not the case with nrf_drv_clock though, as it handles the SoftDevice, which controls the clock when it is in use. So you should think of nrf_drv_clock as a higher level than nrfx_clock. If you will be using the SoftDevice, then using nrf_drv_clock is the way to go. (Alternatively you will quickly just end up re-implementing it yourself which is probably not time well spent).

[quote user=""]are there any available FreeRTOS examples that dont use this clock files? [/quote]

No (for the reason explained above).
