[ECOS] Assign a CDL value to TCL variable.

[ECOS] Assign a CDL value to TCL variable.

[Ilija Kocho]

Hi colleagues

Is there a way to assign a value of CDL option/component to a TCL
variable. something equivalent to:

    cdl_option CYGFOO {
        flavor data
        calculated 5
    }

  set cygbar some_function(CYGFOO)
# Here cygbar == 5

Hi Ilija

Would not you use TCL's ``set'' command for that? E.g.

  cdl_package CYGPKG_FOO {
      cdl_option CYGGLO_FOOBAR {
          flavor data
          calculated [set ::foobar 5]
      }
  }

In such a case you'll find in pkgconf/foo.h

  #define CYGGLO_FOOBAR 5
  #define CYGGLO_FOOBAR_5

Sure that global TCL variable ``foobar'' will be set to 5 too.

Thanks Sergei, but that's not what I need. I heed to assign some Tcl
variable with the value of some CDL option.

AFAIK, eCos CDL library `libcdl' does not provide such an ability (it
does not provide a binding the CDL instances with the Tcl ones).  But,
if you looking for a read-only access to CYG* values via Tcl it can be
done in Tcl. I've got a few lines in Tcl to get something likes below

For CDL

  # foo.cdl --
  cdl_package CYGPKG_FOO {
     display "Foo package"

     cdl_option CYGDAT_BAR {
        display "Bar option"
        flavor boolean
        default_value 1
     }
  }

it provides an access via Tcl namespaces (not nested)

  % CYGPKG_FOO::display
  Foo package
  % puts [GYGDAT_BAR::flavor]
  boolean

YA access via Tcl global variables

  % set CYGDAT_BAR
  1

or that can be used as simple CDL cheker/dumper

  % source cdl_dump.tcl
  % source ecos.ecc
  % set CYG_HAL_STARTUP
  ROM

However, I have no idea how to use that for your needs.  If I understand
correctly the CDL files source itself only once by CT or ecosconfig, so
it looks like static RO access, I do not see any benefits for such a
post processor in Tcl inside CDL sources. But it is possible. If it can
be useful for you I can attach that code (if a fact that is just a demo
snippet, how you would process CDL options).

If you looking for a real binding for the CDL CYG* instances I afraid
that there is only one way to get it, that is to investigate in eCos CDL
library.
