F´ Release v3.1.0: Release Notes

This release of F´ publishes and baselines native versions of the FPP tools as well as a streamlined CMake system that should enable F´ builds based on FPP to run faster. It includes a number of other improvements including a refined dependency versioning setup, gcovr for coverage analysis, and more!

Major Changes

• Improved FPP and CMake efficiency.
• Switched to requirements.txt for dependency version tracking. Users should use this to install.
• ActiveRateGroup, RateGroupDriver now have zero-argument standardized constructors. Users should update topologies. See Ref App.
• CMake autocoders and targets have been refactored for efficiency. Implements should follow: Autocoder Integration

F´ Release v3.0.0-RC2

WARNING: this is a pre-release of F´ v3.0.0 for the purposes of F´ team testing. Some stability issues are still being ironed out and issues may be encountered. It is recommended that users outside the F´ team wait for a final release v3.0.0.

This includes several fixes:

1. Math tutorial is now updated in this branch
2. Extra warning flags added to Ref to improve code quality. Revealed bugs fixed.

See v3.0.0-RC1 for more information on v3.0.0 requirements.

F´ Release v2.0.0

Release 2.0: Release and Migration Notes

Version 2.0.0 of F´ represents major improvements across the F´ framework. As such, some work may be required to migrate from other versions of F´ to the new
functionality. This section will offer recommendations to migrate to version 2.0.0 of F´.

Features and Functionality:

• New ground interface change improves stability and flexibility
  • Svc::Framer and Svc::Deframer components may be used in place of Svc::GroundInterface
  • Svc::Framer and Svc::Deframer delegate to a user instantiated framing class allowing use of non-fprime framing protocols
• Drv::ByteStreamDriverModel allows implementing drivers reading/writing streams of bytes using a single model
• New IPv4 drivers implement Drv::ByteStreamDriverModel allowing choice or combination of uplink and downlink communications
  • Drv::TcpClient is a tcp client that connects to a remote server
  • Drv::TcpServer is a tcp server that allows connections from remote clients
  • Drv::Udp allows UDP communications
  • Drv::SocketIpDriver may be replaced using a choice of an above component.
• Svc::FileDownlink now supports a queue of files to downlink and a port to trigger file downlinks
• Svc::FileDownlink may now be configured to turn off certain errors
• Svc/GenericHub is a basic instantiation of the hub pattern
• Bug fixes and stability improvements

Migration considerations:

• F´ tooling (fprime-util and fprime-gds) should be installed using pip install fprime-tools fprime-gds
• Os::File::open with the mode CREATE will now properly respect O_EXCL and error if the file exists. Pass in false as the final argument to override.
• Revise uses of Fw::Buffer to correct usage of member functions using camel case. E.g. Fw::Buffer::getsize is now Fw::Buffer::getSize
• The ground interface chain has been refactored. Projects may switch to using Svc::Framer, Svc::Deframer, and any implementor of Drv::ByteStreamDriverModel to supply the data. To continue using the old interface with the GDS run fprime-gds --comm-checksum-type fixed.
• Svc::BufferManager has been reworked to remove errors. When instantiating it please supply a memory allocator as shown in Ref.
• Dictionaries, binaries, and other build outputs now are written to a deployments build_artifacts folder.

Deprecated Functionality: The following features are or will be deprecated soon and may be removed in future releases.

• Svc::GroundInterface and Drv::SocketIpDriver should be replaced by the new ground system components.
• Inline enumerations (enumerations defined inside the definition of a command/event/channel) should be replaced by EnumAi.xml implementations
• fprime-util generate --ut -DFPRIME_ENABLE_FRAMEWORK_UTS=OFF will be removed in favor of future fprime-util check variants
• Autocoders/MagicDrawCompPlugin will be removed in a near-term release

F´ Release 1.5.3

This is a release of F´ that corrects a minor issues in the fprme-util to properly pass in environment variables for customers using fprime-util to setup their build environment variables. See releases 1.5.x for full release notes.

Note:

• See release 1.5.x for release updates
• fprime python package version updated to 1.5.3, please reinstall with --upgrade flag

F´ Release 1.5.2

This is a release of F´ that corrects a minor issues in the CMake system affecting template implementation with custom AcConstants.ini files for unit tests and fixes the -D flags passed to fprime-util generate. See release 1.5.0, 1.5.1 for full release notes.

Note:

• See release 1.5.0 for full feature set
• fprime python package version updated to 1.5.2
