01.1 Project & Source Code Structure

The project contains the following files:

• Core:
  Contains main source code. Generated folder.

  • BFFT:
    Source code that is written for the VCU by the BFF team. Contains C++ source as well as header files.
    • device:
      Device layer. Contains device classes.
    • double-buffering:
      Contains implementation for the data ingestion and caching using double buffering approach.
    • frutil:
      Stands for FreeRTOS Utils. Contains C++ code that wraps the FreeRTOS C-API-functions for more convenient use in C++ code.
    • middleware:
      Middleware layer that abstracts the generated code for the STM board. Contains communication implementation, e.g. CAN bus.
    • heap_useNewlib.h:
      Bugfix for the heap management implementation to be able to use FreeRTOS with dynamic heap allocation.
    • mymain.cpp, mymain.hpp:
      C++ main function that gets called from main.c. Currently (15.09.2020) contains code for experimental purposes, e.g. testing CAN communication.
  • Inc:
    Header files of generated code
  • Src:
    Source files of generated code
    • main.c:
      Contains the main function that serves as entry point of program
