The current implementation of the configuration system "compiles" the
configuration parameters to macros defined on the command line. This
works, but has a few limitations:
- it can bring back the maximum command line length issues in Windows.
- depending on the type of the configuration parameter, it might require
special quoting of its value in the command line.
- various 3rd party IDE/tools seem to have some limitations regarding
the total length of the macros that can be defined.
This commit is the first step in replacing the current mechanism with
one that generates configuration in header files that will be
automatically included, instead of command line macro definitions. The
commit only adds the method for generating the header file, it doesn't
actually change the way config is used yet (that will happen in step 2),
thus it is backwards compatible. The logic of the configuration system
itself is unchanged (in fact, the whole change (not only this commit) is
supposed to be completely transparent for the users of the configuration
system).
The commit also fixes an issue in tools/get_config.py that appeared as a
result of a recent PR: the signature of "get_config" in
tools/build_api.py changed, but tools/get_config.py was not updated.
Previously it was .zip always, even when using sources. This patch fixes it:`
```
Successful exports:
* K64F::uvision path\projectfiles\uvision\Unnamed_Project_K64F
```
Previously, .hex files were not copied when building source as a library.
This prevents builds that pre compile source as a library and then
includes the build directory as the only source (because there is no
softdevice present). This PR copies hex files when compiling source
as a library.
- vla flag is not compatible with c++ (not supported), it generates an error
in the IDE. Therefore we remove it
- common flags - add dlib and thum to the common flags.
- cpu flag is for only runtime cmd, IDE sets it via defined MCU, not required.
This is a hack to get debug builds applications that use uVisor to work.
The assertions in core_util_critical_section fail because interrupts can't
actually be disabled from unprivileged mode.
Without this hack, core_util_critical_section_enter() calls
mbed_assert_internal() when the assertion fails, which calls
core_util_critical_section_enter() again, which calls
mbed_assert_internal() again; this is infinite recursion.
core_util_critical_section_enter needs some fixing.
