Hi,
I haven't heard anything back from developers, but I got a solution to the
problem.
I modified the file "debug.c", and changed all the serial code to POSE
HostControl API functions. Now I can use "tail -f" to watch my debugging
messages in a terminal without the tricky serial port thing.
The change is minimum:
======================
#include <HostControl.h>
...
HostFILE *fh;
fh = HostFOpen("/tmp/MyDebug.txt", "a" );
if (fh == NULL) {
// Well ...
}
if ( printFileLineTitle ) {
StrPrintF( logBuf, "[ %s ] %s:%d:", title, fname, line );
StrPrintF( logMsg, "%-25s", logBuf );
HostFPutS( logMsg, fh );
HostFFlush( fh );
printFileLineTitle = false;
}
if ( COUNT_TICKS ) {
StrPrintF( logMsg, " [ ticks: %ld ] ", TimGetTicks() );
HostFPutS( logMsg, fh );
HostFFlush( fh );
}
StrPrintF( logMsg, "%s: %s", function, msg );
HostFPutS( logMsg, fh );
HostFFlush( fh );
HostFClose( fh );
...
===========================
But I am still interested in knowing how to view the messages output from
serial port.
Thanks!
