This allows to build libffi from source together with micropython, and is
useful for cross-compilation. Support for this was already merged
previously, to use:
make libffi
make MICROPY_STANDALONE=1
(To both commands appropriate cross-compilition flags can be added).
Use CTRL-E to enter paste mode. Prompt starts with "===" and accepts
all characters verbatim, echoing them back. Only control characters are
CTRL-C which cancels the input and returns to normal REPL, and CTRL-D
which ends the input and executes it. The input is executed as though
it were a file. The input is not added to the prompt history.
4 spaces are added at start of line to match previous indent, and if
previous line ended in colon.
Backspace deletes 4 space if only spaces begin a line.
Configurable via MICROPY_REPL_AUTO_INDENT. Disabled by default.
In particular, dates prior to Mar 1, 2000 are screwed up.
The easiest way to see this is to do:
>>> import time
>>> time.localtime(0)
(2000, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 5, 1)
>>> time.localtime(1)
(2000, 1, 2, 233, 197, 197, 6, 2)
With this patch, we instead get:
>>> import time
>>> time.localtime(1)
(2000, 1, 1, 0, 0, 1, 5, 1)
Doh - In C % is NOT a modulo operator, it's a remainder operator.
Can complete names in the global namespace, as well as a chain of
attributes, eg pyb.Pin.board.<tab> will give a list of all board pins.
Costs 700 bytes ROM on Thumb2 arch, but greatly increases usability of
REPL prompt.
There are lots of cosmetic changes, but this release brings a very
important bug fix:
- Fixed f_unlink() does not remove cluster chain of the file.
With R0.10c if you try to write a file that is too large to fit in the
free space of the drive, the operation fails, you delete the incomplete
file, and it seems to be erased, but the space is not really freed,
because any subsequent write operations fail because the drive is
"still" full. The only way to recover from this is by formatting the
drive. I can confirm that R0.11 fixes the problem.
This cleans up vstr so that it's a pure "variable buffer", and the user
can decide whether they need to add a terminating null byte. In most
places where vstr is used, the vstr did not need to be null terminated
and so this patch saves code size, a tiny bit of RAM, and makes vstr
usage more efficient. When null termination is needed it must be
done explicitly using vstr_null_terminate.
readline_process_char() can be fed character by character, for example,
received from external event loop. This will allow to integrate MicroPython
into cooperative multitasking systems.
acoshf, asinhf, atanhf were added from musl. mathsincos.c was
split up into its original, separate files (from newlibe-nano-2).
tan was added.
All of the important missing float functions are now implemented,
and pyboard now passes tests/float/math_fun.py (finally!).
Top-level lib directory is for standard C libraries that we want to
provide our own versions of (for efficiency and stand-alone reasons).
It currently has libm in it for math functions.
Also add atanf and atan2f, which addresses issue #837.
