Hello. Is there way to build PSDK FreeRTOS samples using Keil MDK Community Edition (free edition)? I can build the sample using Keil MDK Professional Edition (I have used a free 30-day trial) with the compiler version 5, however, the Community Edition only supports the compiler version 6, which cannot build the sample successfully. Or, is there way to build and burn the sample only using free software like STM32CubeIDE?

    Hello, the sample code we currently provide only supports Keil5 direct compilation, unfortunately, does not support CubeIDE. You may be able to use the community version for development, and our local environment also uses the community version of KEIL5.

    Hello, thank you very much for the reply.

    >You may be able to use the community version for development, and our local environment also uses the community version of KEIL5.

    Could you please tell me how to do that? If I use the community edition with the compiler version 5.06, I've got the following error.

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Build started: Project: mdk_app
    *** Warning: The configured compiler version '5.06 update 6 (build 750)' does not support the selected User Based Licensing technology.

    Hello, after activating the community version, you can use this compilation chain https://pan-sec.djicorp.com/s/ZaJjmqbz7So7p4Z, and place it in the path: Keil_v5\ARM\ARMCC. In fact, this problem is beyond the technical support of our SDK, and it does not belong to the SDK.

    Thank you for the reply. This is not a question but I leave a comment for those who have a similar problem.

    I found the following article in Arm Community. According to this article, the current Keil MDK Community license is called User Based License (UBL) and the compiler version 5 does not work with UBL. I think there was non-UBL free license which can work with the compiler version 5, but currently the Keil MDK Community license policy has changed, as mentioned in this article. In my conclusion, the sample code cannot be compiled with the Keil MDK Community Edition except that you already have an old-style free license.

    >Also, as you say, Arm Compiler 5 is not supported in combination with a UBL license.

    Hello, thank you. Due to possible deviations in the translation software, we misunderstood your meaning. We are very sorry for this. At present, we have roughly understood your intention.
