Order of InitEV3 and setallsensormode commands should be unimportant
Closed this issue · 1 comments
InitEV3 and setallsensormode must be called in this fixed order.
Sometimes, newbies and students and others do mix both vice versa and got unexpected program results.
There is a strong wish, to init the EV3 from setallsensormode if this is not done before.
Thanks in advance

I changed SetSensorMode
and SetAllSensorMode
to call InitEV3
if necessary.
I wasn't a fan of that approach though, so I implemented what I have been meaning to do back in 2015...: Automatic initialization of the EV3.
With the changes introduced in a7a0b52, #include <ev3.h>
should be enough to have InitEv3()
and FreeEv3()
be automatically called on startup/teardown, respectively.
Users might still call it manually, but if they had the header included somewhere, it would just be a no-op.
This is still not optimal, but it's what I assume the best one can do in a static library without affecting how the final executable is linked. If someone feels like it, they could change the crt0 in the EV3-Eclipse-Plugin as well, which would be the proper way.
