Information

• Important: A bug fix in the shared memory implementation for Windows potentially affects applications that adapted the (wrong) buffer layout (see PR #138)!
• Presentation of the library at the Modelica'2017 conference.
• OpenModelica (v1.11.0 Beta 1 and later) is now the third tool known to (partially) support the library (e.g., UDP, TCP/IP, serial port, shared memory, and LCM communication).
• Added support for sending and receiving of Lightweight Communications and Marshalling LCM datagrams (only the communication aspect of LCM is considered, see example TestSerialPackager_LCM).
• Added support for TCP/IP communication for Linux (was already available for Windows).
• New top-level package EmbeddedTargets with a first prototypical support for the Atmel AVR family of microcontrollers (ATmega16 and ATmega328P (=Arduino Uno) are supported; currently only known to work with OpenModelica's ExperimentalEmbeddedC code generation, see AVR documentation).
• Bug fixes for the serial port support.
• Bug fix for the byte order swapping logic (endianness, #203).
• Other (minor) fixes and improvements.
