Terminal device control block type.


Function Documentation

int TermIOCtl ( NUTDEVICE dev,
int  req,
void *  conf 
)

Perform special LCD control functions.

Parameters:
devIdentifies the device that receives the device-control function.
reqRequested control function. May be set to one of the following constants:
  • LCD_CMDBYTE Send command byte to display. Parameter conf points to an u_char value containing the command byte.
  • LCD_CMDWORD16 Send 16 bit command word to display. Parameter conf points to an uint16_t value containing the command bytes. The most significant byte is send first.
  • LCD_CMDWORD32 Send 32 bit command byte to display. Parameter conf points to an uint32_t value containing the command bytes. The most significant bytes are send first.
  • LCD_DATABYTE Send raw data byte to display. Parameter conf points to an u_char value containing the data byte.
  • LCD_DATAWORD16 Send 16 bit raw data word to display. Parameter conf points to an uint16_t value containing the data bytes. The most significant byte is send first.
  • LCD_DATAWORD32 Send 32 bit raw data word to display. Parameter conf points to an uint32_t value containing the data bytes. The most significant bytes are send first.
  • LCD_SETCOOKEDMODE Set terminal control character mode. Parameter conf points to an uint32_t value containing 0 (off) or 1 (on).
  • LCD_GETCOOKEDMODE Query terminal control character mode. Parameter conf points to an uint32_t value receiving 0 (off) or 1 (on).
confPoints to a buffer that contains any data required for the given control function or receives data from that function.
Returns:
0 on success, -1 otherwise.

int TermInit ( NUTDEVICE dev)

Initialize the terminal device.

Prepares the device for subsequent writing.

Application should not call this function directly, but use the stdio interface.

Parameters:
devIdentifies the device to initialize.
Returns:
0 on success, -1 otherwise.

References _TERMDCB::dcb_nrows, _TERMDCB::dcb_smem, _TERMDCB::dcb_vcols, _NUTDEVICE::dev_dcb, _TERMDCB::dss_init, malloc(), and NULL.

Here is the call graph for this function:

int TermWrite ( NUTFILE fp,
const void *  buffer,
int  len 
)

Write data to a terminal device.

Application should not call this function directly, but use the stdio interface.

The data may contain special character sequences, which are interpreted by the terminal device to control specific display functions:

  • Ctrl-H (ASCII 8) Backspace
  • Ctrl-J (ASCII 10) Linefeed
  • Ctrl-L (ASCII 12) Formfeed
  • Ctrl-M (ASCII 13) Carriage return

In addition a superset of VT52 control sequences are interpreted. Each sequence starts with an ESC character (ASCII 27):

  • ESC @ Insert space(*).
  • ESC A Move cursor up, ignored if on first line.
  • ESC B Move cursor down, ignored if on last line.
  • ESC C Move cursor right, ignored if on last column.
  • ESC D Move cursor left, ignored if on first column.
  • ESC E Clear display and move cursor home (*).
  • ESC H Move cursor home.
  • ESC I Reverse linefeed.
  • ESC J Erase to end of display.
  • ESC K Erase to end of line.
  • ESC L Insert line (*).
  • ESC M Delete line (*).
  • ESC P Delete character (*).
  • ESC R Reactivate display (*).
  • ESC S Put display in sleep mode (*).
  • ESC Y x+32 y+32 Move cursor to position.
  • ESC e Cursor on (*).
  • ESC f Cursor off (*).
  • ESC d Erase to start of display (*).
  • ESC o Erase to start of line (*).

(*) Not a VT52 command.

Parameters:
fpFile pointer to a previously opened device.
bufferPointer to the data bytes to be written.
lenNumber of bytes to write.
Returns:
The number of bytes written.
Todo:
TAB should be interpreted.
Bug:
Switching from graphic mode back to text mode will not work, because all escape sequences are ignored as soon as the graphic mode has been enabled. Applications should use _ioctl() functions to switch modes.

References _NUTFILE::nf_dev.

int TermWrite_P ( NUTFILE fp,
PGM_P  buffer,
int  len 
)

Write data from program space to a terminal device.

Similar to TermWrite() except that the data is located in program memory.

Application should not call this function directly, but use the stdio interface.

Parameters:
fpFile pointer to a previously opened device.
bufferPointer to the data bytes in program space to be written.
lenNumber of bytes to write.
Returns:
The number of bytes written.

References _NUTFILE::nf_dev.

NUTFILE* TermOpen ( NUTDEVICE dev,
const char *  name,
int  mode,
int  acc 
)

Open a terminal device.

Application should not call this function directly, but use the stdio interface.

Parameters:
devPointer to device information structure.
nameFilename. Not used with terminal devices.
modeOperation mode. May be any of the following:
  • _O_BINARY Raw mode, no control character interpretation.
  • _O_TEXT Text mode. Control characters are interpreted and tranlated to LCD commands.
accAccess mode. Not used with terminal devices.
Returns:
Pointer to a NUTFILE structure or –1 to indicate an error.

Here is the call graph for this function:

int TermClose ( NUTFILE fp)

Close a device or file.

Application should not call this function directly, but use the stdio interface.

Parameters:
fpPointer to a previously opened NUTFILE structure.
Returns:
0 if the device was successfully closed or –1 to indicate an error.
