Build FreeRTOS alone without any application

Hi, I am planning to start some projects with FreeRTOS. I noticed that, all the FreeRTOS build procedure description revolves around how to build the FreeRTOS + Application. I was wondering, if it’s possible to build the FreeRTOS alone without any application being merged with it. If it’s possible, How can it be done? I am just starting with FreeRTOS, if you could point me in the right direction that will be really helpful. Regards, Lishoy M.L

Build FreeRTOS alone without any application

I’m not certain what you expect out of a ‘FreeRTOS only’ build. Since FreeRTOS does provide a ‘main’ function, it isn’t complete by itself. At a minimum something would have to provide a main that starts the scheduler, at which point all that happens is the idle task just runs continously.

Thanks for the reply, this will be very helpful for my future projects.
