I am sure that there will be things that I have not considered, but I feel that the use of 4 different types of integer HAL pins just leads to unnecessary type conversions and inconvenience. If lcec has no active maintainer, then where do folk get packages from? If they are building from source then I currently expect my proposed changes (_at_this_point_) to be pretty much transparent. Please consider that HAL pins themselves only provide links between HAL components, they do not themselves interface with any hardware. -- atp "A motorcycle is a bicycle with a pandemonium attachment and is designed for the especial use of mechanical geniuses, daredevils and lunatics." — George Fitch, Atlanta Constitution Newspaper, 1912 _______________________________________________ Emc-developers mailing list Emc-developers@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-developers
