Lightly tested:
* no matches (catch-all)
* standard address single address matches (even and odd positions)
* standard address mask matches
* only tested that extended doesn't match non-extended
Tested & working:
* Send standard packets
* Receive standard packets (1 FIFO, no filter)
Interoperation between SAM E54 Xplained running this tree and
MicroPython running on STM32F405 Feather with an external
transceiver was also tested.
Many other aspects of a full implementation are not yet present,
such as error detection and recovery.
Discord user Folknology encountered a problem building with Python 3.6.9,
`TypeError: ord() expected a character, but string of length 0 found`.
I was able to reproduce the problem using Python3.5*, and discovered that
the meaning of the regular expression `"|."` had changed in 3.7. Before,
```
>>> [m.group(0) for m in re.finditer("|.", "hello")]
['', '', '', '', '', '']
```
After:
```
>>> [m.group(0) for m in re.finditer("|.", "hello")]
['', 'h', '', 'e', '', 'l', '', 'l', '', 'o', '']
```
Check if `words` is empty and if so use `"."` as the regular expression
instead. This gives the same result on both versions:
```
['h', 'e', 'l', 'l', 'o']
```
and fixes the generation of the huffman dictionary.
Folknology verified that this fix worked for them.
* I could easily install 3.5 but not 3.6. 3.5 reproduced the same problem
This construct (which I added without sufficient testing,
apparently) is only supported in Python 3.7 and newer. Make it
optional so that this script works on other Python versions. This
means that if you have a system with non-UTF-8 encoding you will
need to use Python 3.7.
In particular, this affects a problem building circuitpython in
github's ubuntu-18.04 virtual environment when Python 3.7 is not
explicitly installed. cookie-cuttered libraries call for Python
3.6:
```
- name: Set up Python 3.6
uses: actions/setup-python@v1
with:
python-version: 3.6
```
Since CircuitPython's own build calls for 3.8, this problem was not
detected.
This problem was also encountered by discord user mdroberts1243.
The failure I encountered was here:
https://github.com/jepler/Jepler_CircuitPython_udecimal/runs/1138045020?check_suite_focus=true
.. while my step of "clone and build circuitpython unix port" is
unusual, I think the same problem would have affected "build assets"
if that step had been reached.
