Modelica_DeviceDrivers v1.5.0

• Important: A bug fix in the shared memory implementation for Windows potentially affects applications that adapted the (wrong) buffer layout (see #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).
• 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 documentation).
• Bug fixes for the serial port support (#117, #118, #119, #127, #128).
• Bug fix for the byte order swapping logic (endianness, #203).
• Other (minor) fixes and improvements.

Modelica_DeviceDrivers v1.4.4

Changelog

• Uses latest version of Modelica Standard Library (v3.2.2)
• Changed the license of the external C code and header files to Simplified BSD License (the Modelica package parts remain under Modelica License 2)
• Impoved Modelica compatibility: Fixed the use of conditionally enabled variable procPrio outside of connect in Blocks.OperatingSystem.SynchronizeRealtime and ClockedBlocks.OperatingSystem.SynchronizeRealtime
• Impoved Modelica compatibility: Fixed the invalid integer to enumeration type conversion in HardwareIO
• Fully specified the initial conditions for example models
• Simplified the linking with system libraries (MSVC only)
• Improved and updated the documentation
• Added continuous integration for the external C code (thanks to Travis CI)
