CANopen Library V 4.5.13 available

(09/2017) PORT delivers the new CANopen Library version 4.5.13 to its customers

The CANopen Library has been comprehensively revised and is now available as an update to our customers. Customers with a current SMA (Service - Maintenance - Agreement) are automatically sent to the update. For our customers without SMA, we recommend an update to the new version - we would be happy to make you an offer.

What is New:

the library can now report any received message to the application
- enabled via define CO_CONFIG_USER_MESSAGE_TEST
- the application can then suppress further handling of a message by the library
the library can now report the time until the next internal event
- could be used to better time the call of FlushMbox on threaded systems
- note: FlushMbox should still be called promtly on receiving a message
- function is called co_getNextInternalEventTime(..)

Changes

dynamic services setup now uses calloc instead of malloc to ensure NULLed variable initialization
when using dynamic services setup on singleline more internal functions use values derived from arguments of initDynamicServices, where applicable
- this was already the case on multiline
added option CO_CONFIG_LSS_FASTSCANDATA_REPORT_FULL_ARRAY to LSS
- this will give a pointer to the full identity information array instead of the start of line specific information
- only noticeable on multiline
- old behavior unchanged
added option CO_CONFIG_SUPPRESS_BOOTUP to start up
- this will suppress sending any boot up, but the device will start otherwise normal
- this option is NOT according to the CANopen standard and WILL FAIL any conformance test
added option CO_CONFIG_BLOCKTRANSFER_INHIBITED_SEND to blocktransfer
- this will inhibit data segments of the blocktransfer, spreading them over time
- value in CO_CONFIG_BLOCKTRANSFER_INHIBITED_SEND is used as a default value, this can be adjusted per SDO
- only data segments in blocktransfer are affected
