RT-Thread[1][2]is an open source real-time operating system for embedded devices. It is distributed under the GPLv2 licence. RT-Thread is developed by the RT-Thread Studio based in China, after five years' fully concentrated development. It is aimed to change the current situation in China that there is no well used open source real-time operating system in the microcontroller area.

RT-Thread kernel[edit]
- Object oriented real-time core (while remaining the elegant and flexible style of C Programming Language);
- 8, 32 or 256 priority scheduling multi-thread scheduling; Using the round-robin policy ensures that all threads having the same priority level will be scheduled equally;
- Synchronization of threads: semaphore and mutual exclusion semaphore (mutex) to prevent priority inversion;
- Complete and efficient support for communication between threads, including mailbox, message queues, event flag;
- Static memory management supports thread suspend/resume when it allocates/frees a memory block and thread-safe dynamic heap management;
- A device driver framework to provide standard interface to high level application;
FinSH shell[edit]
- Command line that accepts C-like expression;
- Access system core functions directly via command line like C Programming Language grammar;
- Access system global variables directly via command line like C Programming Language grammar;
- Command history records and automatic complete for the Command Prompt;
Device File System[edit]
- Virtual File System optimised for small device
- POSIX style API;
- Support the different implementation of file systems
- Wrapper for ELM Chan's FatFs filesystem.
TCP/IP protocol stack[edit]
LwIP is a lightweight TCP/IP protocol stack with the following capabiliites.
- Standard BSD Socket interface.
- IP, ICMP, UDP, TCP supported.
- DNS, DHCP, PPP supported.
- TFTP, HTTP, FTP supported (refer to the netutil component).
RT-Thread/GUI[edit]
- Integrated with RT-Thread;
- Multi-Thread supported;
- Multi-Window supported;
- Rich Widgets such as: label, button, checkbox, radiobox, etc.
- Client/Server Architecture;
- Client: Workbench/View/Window Architecture;
- Chinese GB2312 display.
