A friend from Korea passed me this Hardware Abstraction Layer implementation for HCS12, thought some folks might find it useful. http://www.acelab.org/HAL/files.html Regds Jay |

I had a really short look at it... In the ATD stuff: passing pointers to register blocks as uint16, storing it to a local variable instead of using the parameter itself. The ATD_Read if/else if... cascade is <censored>. What does "lock" return: random data? The EEPROM routine is horrible. Using "for(i=0;i<5000;i++);" for a delay loop is not acceptable. Doesn't make use of Doxygen's features, e.g. collecting unimplementes features in a list. But makes empty "bug" entries. Are they clueless or did I miss the point? Oliver -- Oliver Betz, Muenchen |

You know what they say: Free software is worth every penny you pay for it. The last company I worked for had a total ban on using freeware or shareware. This stuff is a good example of why.

This stuff is a good example of why. I _strongly_ disagree! I say that there is little correlation between price and quality. There is great freeware an shareware, and you can buy expensive crap. Besides the GNU/Linux systems _most_ of the internet web/mail/news/etc. servers rely on, I list some of the _free_ software I work with because of it's high quality: Perl Java (Sun, not MS) GNU tools (e.g. unxutils.sourceforge.net or cygwin), like make, wget Doxygen AT&T Graphviz (DOT etc.) VNC remote control software Ghostscript/Ghostview/GhostWord Putty Mozilla Pegasus Mail (although we paid for, and there are some quirks) Great Shareware I'm using for the same reason: NoICE debugger UltraEdit Beyond Compare IrfanView (free for noncommercial use) PowerArchiver (was even free some day) or Winzip or... FortAgent Jacob Navia's "LCC" Compiler (free for noncommercial use) That's only what I use often - there is much more great and reliable freeware and shareware. Maybe you want to reconsider your statement. Note that I don't say that free or cheap software is always the best choice. If so, I wouldn't use Cosmic C instead of gcc or PC-Lint instead of Splint etc. Oliver -- Oliver Betz, Muenchen |

Hmm, I had a look as well, and their credentials aren't all bad... ----------------- ACE Lab has performed various research projects with local and international companies. On January 6th 2000, ACE Lab and Motorola agreed a ten-year research contract for providing the system solutions of automotive electronic control systems for Korean motor manufacturers and suppliers. Through the agreement, the name of the research lab, ACE Lab, was changed to DigitalDNA ACE Lab. Moreover, DigitalDNA ACE Lab signed a joint research contract with CERT(Center for Environmental Research and Technology) of UCR(University of California-Riverside) which is one of the leading research institutes in the world in the area of automotive emission studies in August 2000. In the year 2001, DigitalDNA ACE Lab has formed a research consortium to perform a ten-year research work of network-based electronic control systems conjunction with Hyundai/Kia Motors, Hyundai MOBIS, KEFICO and NGV. This consortium will focus on the design and development of the next generation control systems until the year 2011: -------------- Regards, Theo |
