v0.1.0

Aixt V language

Now Aixt V is closer to original V due to:

• All the variables are immutable by default. mut reserved word is fully supported.
• Only a few C pre-processor directives are supported (#include)
• C macros are avoided
• The Aixt API is implemented mainly in V
• Reference variables are supported
• Interoperability with C is improved by allowing the calling of C functions, constants and variables by using the syntax: C.function() or C.identifier, previous including the correspondent C header file
• declaration/initialization by function calling directly

Changes:

• The pin names and modes don´t include the module's name so pin.setup(pin.d5, pin.output) changes to pin.high(d5, output), this change is for been less redundant.
• All the variables are immutable by default. If a mutable variable is needed, the use of mut reserved word is imperative.
• Variables can be declared/initialized by calling a function directly, so this two lines: a := u16(0) a = adc.read(an5) can be replaced by: a := adc.read(an5)

API standardization

The function names were standardized for these modules:

• pin: individual pins
• port: pin ports
• adc: analog to digital converter
• pwm: pulse width modulation
• uart: serial port
• time: delaying functions

Configuration .toml files

Now the configuration files are split by device-settings and compiler-settings in different .toml files, in order to reuse and make it easy to include similar devices.

Supported devices
