BSP function availabilty (GPIO, UART, SPI)

[pickplace]

Dears,

I like the approach of Necto so far. However, while coding, I find it very difficult to find out which functions I have to use for which purpose. The only thing you can do is to enter some letters like "GPIO" and hit CTRL-Space to complete. That's far from "rapid prototyping".

How can you at list the functions that are available per library. Is there a header file or something?

In my humble opinion, you should consider publishing the sources of your BSP libraries. It is vital for any kind of industrial or higher-safety level application to detail out the programming concept of the lower level functions...
Is there some hidden place where I can easily find the sources?

Thanks and BR,
Hendrik

Hi,

You can refer to this page for mikroSDK reference manual :
https://docs.mikroe.com/mikrosdk/ref-manual/index.html

As for the source code, mikroSDK is entirely open source in the NECTO Studio's installation folder - \NectoStudio\sdk\2.0.1\src\

Filip.

Hi Filip,

thanks for your quick response. I wasn't aware that the SDK is completely open. But, to be honest, the Necto IDE tends to look like mikroSDK is propriatary.

Great help!

BR,
Hendrik

Hello,

Will the low level hardware abstraction layer be made open source too? I don't see this in MikroSDK. So don't see a way of implementing things like reading from internal flash and such until appropriate drivers are created by Mikroe.

Hi,

Everything regarding the mikroSDK is open source and available to our users.

Flash library is currently not supported so you don't see its implementation there.
