badge2019 hardware with the c interpreter working

NOTE no microchip project file yet. use "make"

Code overview

microchip.c - init chip, setup USB framework badge.c - main code processIO - "main" buttons.c - service button presses IRhandler.c - service IR packets, do callbacks menu.c - use button press to navigate menus badge_apps/* - runningApp() is set to one of these by menu.c

  UserInit        - "user" hardware init
		bootup pin directions and pullups- has to run fast and first

		LCD init      - initial pin, high level LCD functions
		S6B33.c       - low level LCD contoller code
		fb.c          - framebuffer init, opengl-ish draw functions
		timer1_int.c  - audio timer, low level IR, PWM/LED timer
		adc_int.c     - analog->digital hw setup and interupt init
		ir.c          - high level IR service callbacks
		settings.c    - menus for various prefs and settings
		assets.c      - asset playback functions, audio, image display
		assetsListc   - generic access of assets via enums ids

Programming overview

Makefile
make makes build/firmware.hex - used to program badge over USB with bootloadit makes build/firmware.hex.s - assembler dump of hex for folks who can read asm

make ramsyms
	dumps ram variable usage. If you run out of ram this is a sorted list of usage
                                      assets are the usual suspect, or arrays
                                      most assets should be "const" which leaves them in flash 
                                           instead of copying to ram
make romsyms
	dumps rom variable usage. If you run out of rom this is a sorted list of usage
                                      assets are the usual problem, or arrays
                                      any images are suspect since they are typically large

    tools/bootloadit
            program badge over USB using bootloader
            tools/bootloadit  will upload build/firmware.hex to the badge

    tools/progboot.sh
            program bootloader using pickit3 and hex from tools/bootloader_2019.hex

    tools/prog.sh
            program build/firmware.hex using pickit3. You probably don't want this

    tools/sendbadge.py
            send standard input to badge c interpreter via USB using /dev/ttyACM0
            cat file.c | python tools/sendbadge.py

Interpreter

It is no where near a full c implementation:

Arrays have to use malloc()
looping uses while
no case

Keywords

char else enum if int return sizeof while
print printd printx malloc memset memcmp
flareled led FbMove FbWrite
IRreceive IRsend setNote getButton getDPAD
IRstats setTime getTime FbLine FbClear
flashWrite flashRead setAlloc
exit void main

Control commands

run   - run source buffer
new   - clear source buffer
list  - list source buffer
reset - reset memory allocation to safe numbers

Execution/

Note: The source buffer is 2K which may need need to be expanded

Paste one of the "main" blocks from

interp\_src/\*.c

files into a screen/terminal session and then type "run"

you can also just setup to read serial out and cat:

cat /dev/ttyACMO &
cat test.c > /dev/ttyACM0

a file can have multiple 'main' if the interpreter is cleared between each 'main':

main()
{
    // setAlloc below changes memory allocation
    // from the default ~8k internal ram

    // note: don't write into the 32 scanlines
    // that are allocated from the LCD buffer
    // at the bottom of the display:

    //   0 - 103 display
    // 104 - 132 interpreter ram

    // parameters:
    //  32 scanlines
    // 50% text area (program)
    //  6% Data (variables)
    //  6% stack
    // 38% symbol table

    // unused % of ram will be used
    // for the interpreter "malloc" routine
    setAlloc(32, 50, 6, 6, 38);

    // default
    // setAlloc(0, 38, 6, 6, 50);
}

run

new

int main() {
 FbMove(10, 0);
 FbWrite("hello world");
 flareled(150, 100, 200);
 led(0, 0, 100);
 return 123;
}

run

If you get this error:

duplicate global declaration

it usually means you forgot to do a "new" sometimes it means the stack overwrote the symbol table

Interpreter run results

    R XXXXXX  - return or exit() code from interpreter main()
    T XXXXXX  - program size
    D XXXXXX  - program data size
    S XXXXXX  - stack size
    Y XXXXXX  - symbol table

** BUGS **

yeah
