Feature request: Please add Azure RTOS/ThreadX support to Segger Ozone Debugger and SystemView

Hi,

The very good IDE-independent standalone J-Link debugger Ozone from Segger has very good support for major RTOSes through RTOS awareness:
https://www.segger.com/products/development-tools/ozone-j-link-debugger/technology/rtos-awareness/

Surprisingly, there is no official plugin for ThreadX. There is a project on GitHub
https://github.com/fzawadiak/Ozone-ThreadX
adding some support, but I'd like to see an official plugin from Microsoft that adds full Ozone support for Cortex-M4 / M7.

As ThreadX is now available through many MCU vendors this will definitely help during development.

UPDATE: The same request applies to adding ThreadX support to Segger's SystemView which is a very advanced runtime analayzer:
https://www.segger.com/products/development-tools/systemview/

I really hope that such support will be added as it is highly requested by developers using professional Segger tools for debugging.

Thanks in advance,

Anguel

Hi @SatishBoddu-MSFT

I just posted the idea per your suggestion. I posted under 'Azure IoT edge' category.

I have to agree with Anguel. Professional hw interface tools play a key role in productive embedded development. Ignoring this aspect feels like a mistake that competitors will benefit from.

We do not make or maintain ThreadX plugins. That is up to each tool vendor to provide.

That‘s too bad. They probably won‘t, because they have their own RTOS they want to sell. Btw, FreeRTOS is fully supported by these tools, so this is unfortunately a big obstacle to switch to Azure RTOS and having to leave behind my professional debug tools which are extremely important for RTOS development. Well, I posted this request, of course you have to decide which developers you are targeting and what is important for you to make people use Azure RTOS.
