New Task Aware Debugger Available

2021-07-20 Thread Dave Marples
Folks, Steve Woodford has just integrated NuttX task awareness into his Maven debugger. This initial version runs on the NXP MCU-Link, replacing the 'stock' firmware.   Fortunately the MCULink is only about $10 and I'm sure it'll get ported to anything with a clock tick pretty quickly.

A more general solution would be handy but what is there really in the embedded world that doesn't support vt100? There more code there is, the more interesting ways it can go wrong :-) (BTW; ctrl-L to clear the screen was one of the first things I added after fixing backspace/deleteboth of

Hiya, Yes, there's some cheesy simple stuff in there already (mainly to stop the zephyr folks throwing shade cos their terminal is prettier). At the moment it only highlights commands, responses and errors iirc, but making it more context aware would certainly be niceit's already switched

Andrei, Might be a red herring but take a look at the i2c module for mimxrtthere were changes applied there recently for similar issues. It could well be that the modules have common heritage and so have the same bugs...not at my desk otherwise I'd have a look myself. Regards Dave On Sun,

Ben, I have this up and running on an imxrt with a 'generic' spi driver (i.e.that should work with any spi device rather than the platform specific one that was previously in use). When I'm back at my desk this evening I'll send the files to you so you can compare and contrast to make something

If it is not too device specific, I can put it on a branch and we can haggle through the details before merging it to master. I think your original proposal for nx_updatedisplay() would be okay if  it were renamed and took three arguments like: int nx_synch(NXWINDOW hwnd, int cmd, unsigned

Linux uses Xorg for graphics.  So if this feature is supported in Linux, then I think it would be through Xorg?  The NX server is the tiny, moral equivalent of the XServer. This is interesting: https://hackaday.com/2018/08/14/run-a-linux-terminal-on-cheap-e-ink-displays/ The interface is

How are other operating systems / graphics libraries handling this? From what I've seen they mostly don't...you end up with a parallel graphics subsystem built on top of an SPI. We can do better than that, given that very little needs to be extended. Regards DAVE

Hi Greg, Thanks for the replies.  Comments embedded; What is the interface to the ePaper device?  Is it through a serial interface?  Or a framebuffer interface? The interface is over SPI. It 'looks like' a normal lcd supported by lcd_dev_s. The particular one I have is write-only, but

Folks, I've implemented an ePaper driver under nxgl, but as some of you are probably aware there needs to be an explicit redraw request to update an ePaper display. I'm not quite sure how to do that under nxgl as normally it would be driven automatically. It also takes a fair bit of time
