New discovery: Contiki also uses timer 0. With almost the same interface
as Arduino. So we now completely get rid of wiring.c (only the main
file, the other wiring_xxx stay) and implement Arduino timer, delay, etc
in terms of the corresponding Contiki routines. Verified that now delay
works as expected. The LED in examples/osd/arduino-sketch blinks!
Before this, the arduino_init routine in wiring.c destroyed the timer-0
initialization of contiki, making both, contiki timer implementation
*and* contiki timer implementation fail if the arduino_init routine was
called. Now both work.
We can now directly compile arduino sketches (.pde) files.
Arduino compatible analogWrite works now.
But there is still a long way to go, serial I/O and timer stuff (delay,
millis etc) currently don't work (not tested but I don't expect this to
work).
It can be used in an arduino sketch or in a normal contiki program.
We get a PWM frequency of 490.2 Hz (a period of 2.040 ms), that's
Arduino compatible. If you need different frequencies see native timer
usage in examples/osd/pwm-example
In a contiki program you have to call arduino_pwm_timer_init to
initialize the timer before pwm works. The arduino sketch wrapper
already does this.
For running a sketch, see examples/osd/arduino-sketch
New application and new example.
We use the built-in timer routines and add an offset to get the
wallclock time. The offset can be set by time-changing routines
(currently only settimeofday).
We also maintain an offset for timezone handling but this isn't
currently fully implemented.
Current default in the Makefile is the *new* bootloader address.
But for backward compatibility we've modified the run*.sh files
to use the old address. The run*.sh also now explain how to change
the default.
