pw_dumb_io_stdio
|
||
|
----------------
|
||
|
The ``pw_dumb_io_stdio`` backend implements the ``pw_dumb_io`` facade using
|
||
|
stdio.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Why not just use stdio directly?
|
||
|
--------------------------------
|
||
|
|
||
|
The nice thing about using ``pw_dumb_io`` is that it's rather easy to get a
|
||
|
board up and running with a target-specific backend. This means when drafting
|
||
|
out a quick application you can write it against ``pw_dumb_io`` and, with some
|
||
|
care, the application will be able to run on both host and target devices.
|
||
|
|
||
|
While it's not recommended to use ``pw_dumb_io`` for any production
|
||
|
applications, it can be rather helpful for early prototyping.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Setup
|
||
|
=====
|
||
|
This module requires relatively minimal setup:
|
||
|
|
||
|
1. Write code against the ``pw_dumb_io`` facade.
|
||
|
2. Specify the ``dir_pw_dumb_io_backend`` GN global variable to point to this
|
||
|
backend.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Module usage
|
||
|
============
|
||
|
For the most part, applications built with this backend will behave similarly
|
||
|
to an application built directly against stdio.
