I am answering my own question here, but I bought a K3772-Z from "Shenzhen Expand Electronic Co. Ltd" (http://www.expandgroup.com.cn).

Both of these libraries are open source so you're free to try them anywhere.

Great!

Any known suppliers in Hong Kong?

Previous versions, like EthernetNetIf, contained a routine called Net::Poll() to build interrupt-drive server applications that could listen in the background. Can someone show me an example of how to implement network-polling with MBED-RTOS?

Same question than Jaap Vermaas about Net::Poll() and eth.getHwAddr().

I do not understand, there are a question since 15 jul 2012 and no answer at all. May be this wiki is just for ignore it.

You don't get an email when someone responds to a wiki, and in the latest activity log it just says someone commented on 'homepage', which could be any wiki page. So comments and questions are easily missed. (I dont have any clue about these questions so cant help).

Erik, OK, thanks for the answer.

You are right the activity sections could be more clear of these pages. The way they work now is that the name of the page is shown, however maybe for wiki pages it should should show the repo name as well. Email notifications for wiki pages are already implemented in our development release and should be released soon. We hope you find it useful.

Erik, I'm very happy with mbed is an amazing product, but I'm a little disappointed with the support, wait two days for an answer is too much, I hope when the community grow the support became more agile.

Hi Mario,

Yes, it is certainly true questions can get lost in wiki comments; we've seen this happening too, so...

Look out for an all new Questions section! Coming soon! It is much better for both asking questions seeing what questions need answers, and should be entering beta in the next few weeks!

Looks like you also have your answer now in the forum :)

Hi Simon,

Tanks for the feedback.

And yes I have an answer about the mac address.

I see you are a member of mBed team then I have another complain, by now I'm reading the Handbook RTOS page, implement a multithreading rtos is a big achievement(Hight five for you) but the documentation is minimalistic, take a look at Signal object explanation "Each Thread can be notified and wait for signals", nine words. How can I understand the object behaviour with nine words?

Tanks one more time for the feedback.

Hi Mario,

The support sections of the ARM and Keil web sites contain a wealth of useful information. The mbed RTOS is based on the ARM/Keil RTX RTOS. This forms part of RL-ARM and is documented here: http://www.keil.com/support/man/docs/rlarm/

I think Simon's Signals are the same as RTX Events. They are described here http://www.keil.com/support/man/docs/rlarm/rlarm_ar_product.htm and here http://www.keil.com/support/man/docs/rlarm/rlarm_ar_evt_mgmt_funcs.htm

Happy reading!

Hi mbed,

I have just updated my mbed to this new version of ethernet and I can't get it to work. It seems that there is no signal from LED_LINK or LED_SPEED coming out of the ethernet chip having tried it on two boards now. It has worked perfectly with the old library.

Thanks.
