our next product uses freeRTOS and it seems good so far

my last job shied away from FreeRTOS and thought that uPython was a better realtime multitasking solution (????????????????????)

[ask] me about making python run on an bespoke hardware stack on a kinetis k64

thanks!

I'm really sensitive to size, and one end of this is in C which seems to rule out protobuf. i know the format of the 31bytes I want to send. at this point i know enough to spin up a few dummy test cases and work them out. some of the message pack examples looked like they were outside of k:v pairs in JSON format though

debating asking the gray forums

what is the thing running C? if it's an OS you can still use google protobuff and just link it cleverly

contriving my own stupid schema is never a problem, the most difficult thing is keep tracking of MSB/LSB madness depending on the platform/what is serializing/deserializing in the chain of things

m4

im in enough fights with my tools that I don't want to add another language though. and there's actually another programmer around this time, so I don't have the luxury/curse of writing both sides

hmm, well if i were in your situation i'd probably still use protobuff and just make a little script that generates a static library from the protobuff schema file that is linkable (there's probably reasons it's not this simple)

failing that -- let me know what you end up going with/link your greyforums post here
