Common#

Micrium OS Common is a module that groups common components used by various Micrium products. It currently includes:

• An authentication module which allows you to create users and manage their access rights

• An emulation of the C standard library, including functions for memory allocation and de-allocation including:

  • Data copy, compare

  • String copy, compare, replace

  • Some character functions and a basic random number generator (RNG)

• A kernel abstraction layer (KAL), which allows products to make an abstraction of the active kernel (OS2 or OS3)

• Logging capabilities available for every Micrium OS module

• For all the Micrium OS modules, there is a common error type and several related utilities

• A shell interface for Micrium OS components and any other components that register shell functions

• A toolchain detection and abstraction component

Most parts of Micrium OS Common are expected to be present in every Micrium OS project.
