Dear TAs,
After having created the hardware, the two software packages for both of the processors were created 2 * (app+BSP). The chosen code corresponds exactly to the hello world micro OS template that is supposed to print "Hello from task 1/2"(as shown in the first screenshot hereafter). The bsps can be generated and the code built and loaded onto the hardware without any errors. Yet, when then checking the nios2 console(jtag_uart_0), nothing is printed in it. Do we need to switch the port of the niosII console or is there another way to get the desired printf statements displayed in the console?
Thanks in advance for your reply,
Alexandre and Raphael

* Description: *
* The following is a simple hello world program running MicroC/OS-II.The *
* purpose of the design is to be a very simple application that just *
* demonstrates MicroC/OS-II running on NIOS II.The design doesn't account*
* for issues such as checking system call return codes. etc. *
* *
* Requirements: *
* -Supported Example Hardware Platforms *
* Standard *
* Full Featured *
* Low Cost *
* -Supported Development Boards *
* Nios II Development Board, Stratix II Edition *
* Nios Development Board, Stratix Professional Edition *
* Nios Development Board, Stratix Edition *
* Nios Development Board, Cyclone Edition *
* -System Library Settings *
* RTOS Type - MicroC/OS-II *
* Periodic System Timer *
* -Know Issues *
* If this design is run on the ISS, terminal output will take several*
* minutes per iteration. *
