Simple OLED library for Pi Pico SDK
pi pico extension based on the work in https://github.com/bitbank2/ss_oled
do a git clone https://github.com/martinkooij/pi-pico-ss-oled
if you want to compile, you can use the provided example as a guideline. If the PICO SDK is installed according to the guidelines on the raspberry pi pico site the following should work:
cd pi-pico-ss-oled/example
mkdir build && cd build
cmake ..
make
or on windows
cd pi-pico-ss-oled/example
mkdir build && cd build
cmake .. -G "NMake Makefiles"
nmake
Create an object of type picoSSOLED. On this object one can execute the methods described below.
The C++ is basically a simple wrapper around the C library of Larry Bank. Code concerning bit banging is stripped and replaced by the i2c facilities of pi Pico.

//initialize
int init ();
//
// Provide or revoke a back buffer for your OLED graphics
// This allows you to manage the RAM used by ss_oled on tiny
// embedded platforms like the ATmega series
// Pass NULL to revoke the buffer. Make sure you provide a buffer
// large enough for your display (e.g. 128x64 needs 1K - 1024 bytes)
//
void set_back_buffer(uint8_t * pBuffer);
//
// Sets the brightness (0=off, 255=brightest)
//
void set_contrast(uint ucContrast);
//
// Load a 128x64 1-bpp Windows bitmap
// Pass the pointer to the beginning of the BMP file
// First pass version assumes a full screen bitmap
//
int load_bmp(uint8_t *pBMP, bool bInvert, bool bRender);
//
// Power up/down the display
// useful for low power situations
//
void power(bool bON);
//
// Set the current cursor position
// The column represents the pixel column (0-127)
// The row represents the text row (0-7)
//
void set_cursor(int x, int y);
//
// Turn text wrap on or off for the oldWriteString() function
//
void set_textWrap(bool bWrap);
//
// Draw a string of normal (8x8), small (6x8) or large (16x32) characters
// At the given col+row with the given scroll offset. The scroll offset allows you to
// horizontally scroll text which does not fit on the width of the display. The offset
// represents the pixels to skip when drawing the text. An offset of 0 starts at the beginning
// of the text.
// The system remembers where the last text was written (the cursor position)
// To continue writing from the last position, set the x,y values to -1
// The text can optionally wrap around to the next line by calling oledSetTextWrap(true);
// otherwise text which would go off the right edge will not be drawn and the cursor will
// be left "off screen" until set to a new position explicitly
//
// Returns 0 for success, -1 for invalid parameter
//

// Fill the frame buffer with a byte pattern
// e.g. all off (0x00) or all on (0xff)
//

//
// Set (or clear) an individual pixel
// The local copy of the frame buffer is used to avoid
// reading data from the display controller
// (which isn't possible in most configurations)
// This function needs the USE_BACKBUFFER macro to be defined
// otherwise, new pixels will erase old pixels within the same byte
//

// Dump an entire custom buffer to the display
// useful for custom animation effects
//

// Render a window of pixels from a provided buffer or the library's internal buffer
// to the display. The row values refer to byte rows, not pixel rows due to the memory

// The animation data is assumed to be encoded for a full frame of the display
// Given the pointer to the start of the compressed data,
// it returns the pointer to the start of the next frame
// Frame rate control is up to the calling program to manage
// When it finishes the last frame, it will start again from the beginning

//
// Draw a sprite of any size in any position
// If it goes beyond the left/right or top/bottom edges
// it's trimmed to show the valid parts
// This function requires a back buffer to be defined
// The priority color (0 or 1) determines which color is painted
// when a 1 is encountered in the source image.
// e.g. when 0, the input bitmap acts like a mask to clear
// the destination where bits are set.
//
void draw_sprite(uint8_t *pSprite, int cx, int cy, int iPitch, int x, int y, uint8_t iPriority);
//
// Draw a 16x16 tile in any of 4 rotated positions
// Assumes input image is laid out like "normal" graphics with
// the MSB on the left and 2 bytes per line
// On AVR, the source image is assumed to be in FLASH memory
// The function can draw the tile on byte boundaries, so the x value
// can be from 0 to 112 and y can be from 0 to 6
//
void draw_tile(const uint8_t *pTile, int x, int y, int iRotation, bool bInvert, bool bRender);
//
// Draw an outline or filled ellipse
//

//
// Draw an outline or filled rectangle
//
