This fixes the multi-line stimulus parsing bug noted by Martin. There's still
one outstanding bug here that does have a work-around. In the old versions of
gpsim, you could attach a stimulus to an I/O port using the stimulus
command. For example, here's something straight from help:
gpsim> stimulus sqw period 200 high_time 20 phase 60 port portb 0 end
This won't work. Instead you need to take three steps:
gpsim> stimulus sqw period 200 high_time 20 phase 60 end
gpsim> node test_node
gpsim> attach test_node portb0
I know it sucks - but for now that's the way it's going to be...
If you type a command and get:
***ERROR: parse error, expecting `$'
Then it means I missed one of the commands when I fixed the parsing
bugged. (This is easy for me to fix, and does not cause any problem with the
command being entered - basically it says that the parser doesn't know how to
handle a new line after a command).
modules:
--------
This version also has the beginning of the module interface.
But unfortunately, the modules aren't useful just yet.
Other bug fixes:
---------------
There's also a patch from Paco Moya that fixes two long outstanding bugs -
people have been unable to compile gpsim on Linux distributions other than
RH. It turns out that the new readline library has a bug that prevents it from
being linked with C++ code. The other problems were C++ syntax errors that the
older version of gcc (shipped with RH6.0) does not catch.
gpsim was dumping core when the P16C61 and P16C71 were instantiated.
------------
I'll be out of town for a week starting next week - so there aren't going to be
any major things done by me for a little while. Version 0.20.0 will surface
sometime toward the end of June.
Regards,
Scott
