Octave remote C code project

The C code has been written to be hopefully

1. As portable as possible
2. Target simple microcontrollers
3. RAM resources are passed into the code where possible (no local mallocs or static data)

It is being developed and tested on an Atmel Arduino Mega2560.
A third party is successfully using the c code with a 16 bit Microchip PIC.

If you have any ideas or feedback please get in touch

Current status of Examples

OctaveOrp/c/AppExamples/ArduinoAvr/PC_mingw32/test_orp_input.c
Builds and runs for mingw32

OctaveOrp/c/AppExamples/ArduinoAvr/octaveAdcDemoSketch/octaveAdcDemoSketch.ino

Builds and runs - is able to send and receive data to/from Octave. Sends 8 live ADC values to Octave Receives one datavalue from Octave

Tested with :

• Arduino mega2560 +
• mangOH yellow / Octave edge 2.1.3 / Octave edge 2.1.4

Not yet tested with Octave edge 3.0.0

OctaveOrp/c/AppExamples/ArduinoAvr/octaveDemoSketch/octaveDemoSketch.ino

Builds and runs - is able to send and receive data to/from Octave. Sends dummy value to Octave Receives one datavalue from Octave

Tested with :

• Arduino mega2560 +
• mangOH yellow / Octave edge 2.1.3

Hardware

This is a list of the hardware used to test the example applications.

• Arduino Mega 2560
• mangOH yellow WP7702(octave_2.1.3_wp77xx Legato version 19.07 Modem firmware version R12)
• TMP36 analogue output temperature sensor (horrible electrically but works if carefully integrated)
• SEEED Grove - Temperature Sensor V1.2 attached to Arduino ADC 0

Hint on making a symlink in powershell

From https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/microsoft.powershell.management/new-item?view=powershell-6

Used this to symlink core c code into arduino or other target project

New-Item -ItemType SymbolicLink -Path "Link" -Target "Target"

Replace the “Link” portion with the path to the symbolic link you want to create (including the file name and its extension for files)

Replace the “Target” portion with the path (relative or absolute) that the new link refers to.

New-Item -ItemType SymbolicLink -Path "Link" -Target .

Source:
C:\Users\john\Documents\Arduino\octaveArduinoGH2\c

Destination:
C:\Users\john\Documents\Arduino\libraries

cmd /c mklink
Creates a symbolic link.

MKLINK [[/D] | [/H] | [/J]] Link Target

        /D      Creates a directory symbolic link.  Default is a file
                symbolic link.
        /H      Creates a hard link instead of a symbolic link.
        /J      Creates a Directory Junction.
        Link    Specifies the new symbolic link name.
        Target  Specifies the path (relative or absolute) that the new link
                refers to.

In my case

cmd /c mklink /d .\c C:\Users\john\Documents\Arduino\octaveArduinoGH2\c
