New issue
Summary: Make sending ACK on message transmission skipable.
Owner: rtartiere@il4p.fr
Cc: rtartiere@il4p.fr
Status: New
I guess that for performance reasons, some advance users would prefer to skip
sending the non-mandatory ACK on data transmission. They may also perform a
quicker check of the ACK returned by the chip after sending the command and
before receiving the response (not sure about this one).
It will probably be a ./configure option disabled by default that allows some "shortcuts" to perform NFC hacking.
Avoid redundant code in PN53x usb and uart drivers. Since it makes sense to
report errors at the nfc_device_t level, pass it directly to
pn53x_transceive().
Programs using the libnfc MAY use pn53x_transceive() to communicate with a NFC
device, and SHALL not use anymore pnd->pdc->transceive(). Code in the library
itself SHOULD avoid calling pnd->pdc->transceive(), so such construct have been
updated accordingly.
ISO C forbids empty source files. Instead of compiling possibly empty source
files depending on the compiler parameters, only compile required files to
build the library as requested at the ./configure stage.
Windows users (and more precisely non-autotools users), you may have to update
whatever you use to build the libnfc to fit your needs. The Makefile shipped
in the windows directory compiles all drivers as it is written so you should
not notice any difference, but if you don't use _that_ makefile, then you will
have to do some adjustment.
For now, keep the defines in CFLAGS just in case. Planned for removal in circa
one week.
While here, pet `./configure` output (--help format and summary).
- New API function append_iso14443a_crc();
- Add a PRINT_HEX macro for driver debugging (replaces print_hex function from bitutils.c);
- Move bit-mirroring related functions to libnfc/mirror-subr.[hc];
- Move iso14443 related functions to libnfc/iso14443-subr.c;
- Move libnfc/bitutils.c hex-dumping code to examples/nfc-utils.c;
- Replace calls to swap_endian32() and swap_endian64() functions with calls to bswap32() and bswap64 provided by endian.h.
And while I am here:
- Fix the DBG macro so that it does not throw warning at compile time.
- Put libusb and PC/SC check in m4 macros.
- Suppress --disable-pcsclite and --disable-libusb
- Add --with-drivers option: we now could choose which driver to build. without this option a default set is build (ATM all drivers except PN532_UART)
