177-188: Consider enhancing the flags parameter documentation.The docstring could be more explicit about the flags parameter being converted to a single bit. Consider adding:
flags (int): The flags sent to the controller. + Note: This value is converted to a single bit (0 or 1) + to match the protocol requirements.

189-192: LGTM! Clean implementation of bool to bit conversion.
The implementation correctly converts the flags parameter to a single bit representation as expected by the API. The added comments clearly explain the rationale.
Let's verify if other methods in the codebase follow similar bit-level precision for flags:
✅ Verification successful
Implementation is correct and consistent with the codebase
The verification shows that:
- The bit conversion is used exclusively in this method, which is appropriate as it's specifically for API6 protocol communication
- The test cases (test_communication.py, test_communication_mock.py) confirm the flags parameter is used correctly in the protocol
- The control layer (control.py) properly sets the flag as a boolean value before passing it to cnf_line_API6
- The implementation maintains protocol compatibility as evidenced by the existing test cases

Not sure why this is required, >>> help(bool)
Help on class bool in module builtins:
class bool(int)
| bool(x) -> bool
|
| Returns True when the argument x is true, False otherwise.
| The builtins True and False are the only two instances of the class bool.
| The class bool is a subclass of the class int, and cannot be subclassed.
...=> proposed change is replacing an integer by an integer of the same size (0b is only a formater) If you really want to control the conversion to byte, you should use something like ... but this is not required as it is done already within the What issue # are we trying to solve here btw ?

I made a release from this PR if anyone wants to test: https://github.com/jonathanperret/ayab-desktop/releases/tag/1.0.0-never-end-1 I couldn't reproduce #662 and I still can't with this build, but it does not seem to have broken anything either. |
