Hi everyone,
First of all, a praise to your work! I just decided that a AVR-based platform is no sufficient for my project and upgraded to an stm32-discovery board. All I needed to modify in my application was a few Pin and device settings (about 5 lines). Thats it, the same application runs on a completely diffferent platform. Awesome!
To my question: I'm working on an Ambilight clone (I already submitted a driver for my PWM devices). The device is connected via UART to a PC. Boblight runs on the PC and sends colors via a certian protocol over UART. I'm using a very basic protocol in the moment but would like to implement sanother one (LTBL). I would like to contribute the protocol Implementation, maybe it's of use for someone. So my question is: What would be the xpcc way of implementing a protocol on top of UART?
Currently I'm using a protothread that reads a data stream from uart and parses it token by token. However, I'm think more of something similar to a driver.
Cheers Christian
