.. _bridle_release_notes_420: |BRIDLE| 4.2.0 Release Notes ############################ This project demonstrate the integration of |TIAC| support in open source projects, like the Zephyr RTOS, with libraries and source code for applications. It is not yet intended or supported by |TIAC| for product development. Highlights ********** New board support for: * TiaC CoffeeCaller nRF52 with SHT40 temperature and humidity sensor, one on-board PWM driven Buzzer and four Servo Motor connectors. Immediately ready to use, thanks to the integrated UF2-compatible bootloader (preprogrammed in the internal on-chip flash). * VccGND Studio BluePill boards and derivates with following solderd chips: - STM32F103C8T6 / STM32F103CBT6 - STM32F072C8T6 / STM32F072CBT6 - STM32F051C8T6 (no USB, no CAN) - STM32F030C8T6 (no USB, no CAN) * WeAct Studio BluePill+ boards and derivates with following solderd chips: - STM32F103C8T6 / STM32F103CBT6 - CH32V203C8T6 / CH32V203C6T6 * Mini USB RP2040 with board revisions for different sizes of QSPI flash memory and a workaround, as far as possible, for rarely existing boards with incorrectly assembled chip LED. * Mini USB RP2350 with board revisions for different sizes of QSPI flash memory .. note:: See the changelog and readme files in the component repositories for a detailed description of changes.

The related but deprecated Kconfig options ``ETH_STM32_HAL_MII`` and ``ETH_STM32_HAL_PHY_ADDRESS`` were removed. The following sections provide detailed lists of changes by component. * Support for new board TiaC CoffeeCaller nRF52. * Support for new VccGND Studio BluePill boards and derivates. * Support for new WeAct Studio BluePill+ boards and derivates. * Support for new board Mini USB RP2040 with board revisions. * Support for new board Mini USB RP2350 with board revisions. * PROJECT UPDATE to `Zephyr Project`_ v4.2.0 Build Infrastructure ==================== * GitHub now also tests the buildability with the Bridle USB Console snippet. * Rework Bridle's sample ``helloshell`` and ``button`` to work with the CMake variable ``EXTRA_CONF_FILE`` instead of ``CONF_FILE``. * Upgrade to west version 1.4.0 as minimal required version. * Switch west manifest to CMSIS version 6 for ARM Cortex-M. * Remove Nios2 usage. Maybe we will bring back this architecture later within Bridle as a self contained downstream support for historical reason to being able to use obsolete and deprecated hardware. Even this is interesting for training and education. * Remove ``native_posix`` as it has reached its end of life in Zephyr v4.2, after being deprecated since Zephyr v4.0. * The new SPI loopback test cases from Zephyr have been qualified and adapted to the requirements and capabilities of the Bridle integration platform (TiaC Magpie F777NI). Documentation ============= 1. Use Sphinx 8.2 and Zephyr's ``DoxyRunner`` with ``DoxyBridge``, ``DoxyToolTip`` and ``APIOverview`` for documentation processing. 2. The Sphinx extension ``APIOverview`` was copied into Bridle namespace and all hard coded strings (e.g. *"Available in … Since"*) were adopted to Bridle. 3. The Sphinx extension ``ManifestProjectTable`` (former ``ManifestRevisionTable``) was copied into Bridle namespace and the old functionality from the sdk-nrf repository by Nordic (``show-first`` option) was merged with the new functionality from Zephyr upstream (``filter`` option). 4. Switch getting started guide for Windows to Winget. Winget has become the standard Windows package manager, and it already contains all the packages required for Zephyr and Bridle development. Switch to it from Chocolatey for simplicity and consistency with the OS. 5. Update all output messages in documentation to be in sync with the upcoming Bridle version v4.2.0, based on Zephyr v4.2 (samples and tests).
