Using an "lcd" hierarchy for LCD segment displays would imply a separate hierarchy for LED segment displays with similar controllers. I think a more generic name is desirable. Historically, support for simple devices with no corresponding I/O infrastructure package has tended to be bundled with the relevant HAL package. However, I do appreciate the desire for portability across architectures. A few possibilities for consideration: 1) Introduce a hal/devs/ hierarchy for HAL-level device definitions which may be required across multiple architectures. Accessed directly as if part of a platform HAL or variant HAL package. 2) Introduce a devs/misc/ hierarchy for miscellaneous simple eCos devices with no corresponding I/O layer. Accessed via eCos device lookup. 3) Create an I/O infrastructure package for segment displays. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.ecos.sourceware.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
