[Ktechlab-devel] Documentation for developers?

[David Saxton]

I setup a wiki at http://wiki.ktechlab.org/ a week ago - it's still being 
tested - so not "officially" released. But it is starting to act as a focal 
point for development, and there are some useful resources there for 
development.

Also, there is the API documentation at http://ktechlab.org/api/ktechlab/ 
(this needs updating).

There's no specific documentation (yet) for adding microcontroller support. So 
for information on it, you'll want to start by looking in the src/micro/ 
directory, and (for examples of gpsim integration): at the following classes: 
GpsimProcessor, PICComponent, PICComponentPin.

Nope. It's mostly microcontroller neutral. But adding flowcode support for 
other microcontrollers either involves adding a different language-output 
option for flowcode (i.e. other than microbe), or extending microbe to 
support other microcontrollers.

Hopefully the wiki is / will become a good resource :)
