• GNU ARM Eclipse QEMU v2.4.50-20151029*-dev released;

• [SF features-request#107] Analog Devices contributed a template for the ADuCM36[01] devices;
• [SF features-request#108] the generic Cortex-M template was extended to also create Cortex-M7 projects;
• [#13] the Devices tab is now visible to all projects, not only those generated by GNU ARM Eclipse.

Addressed bugs

• [SF bugs#195] the content of the Toolchains tab was not updated when the build configuration changed; fixed.

Template issues

• the CMSIS Core was updated to v4.4;
• the STM32F4 HAL was updated to v1.9.0;
• the implementation of assert_failed() was made weak, to allow redefinitions.

Other changes

• part of the µOS++ III code used by the templates (ARM Core, STM32F4 CMSIS, STM32F4 HAL) was migrated to separate packages, available in the GitHub project xPacks. Eventually the entire dependency on µOS++ III will be migrated to separate packages.

Known problems

• none so far
