Hello,
I have a major problem with RTX and Keil don't seem to be able to help (as they want a simple scenario to cause the problem, but I cannot give them the hardware of course. Maybe I can make it go wrong using an evaluation board). I'm using RTX as the backbone of a product that needs to run for extended periods of time without reboot (weeks...). The problem is that RTX stops executing arbitrary tasks at arbitrary moments - they remain 'ready' but not get services. Today I discovered a task entering 'WAIT_MUT' while not using ANY mutex. My question: Are there any tips using RTX correctly? I am growing totally frustrated and tired of this, what am I supposed to tell the client?! I'm using latest and so expensive RL-ARM without any results whatsoever. Can you share your experience with me?
Thanks you for your attention,
Tamir

Thank you for the link. It give me a lot of information.
Is there any workaround for this problem right now? Do we have to pay extra couple of grands for the new release?
Regards, Xiao
Keil are working on a new release of RL-ARM. If you have a license, it's for free. I do have a prototype fix which seems to work fine, but I do not think Keil will appreciate me distributing it right now. Wait a little longer for an official release.
Hi,
I got confused about this license. I do have a license. The free upgrade is only good for one year from the purchase, am I right?
I've been using this software for more than one year.
this is a question for Keil support, I am afraid.
