User commands in menubar

Please consider the following extension to the IDE: allowing to add one (or better more) user definable commands (paths to executable Windows files) under the Tools entry of the menubar. This would be helpful, for instance, to invoke external apps for analysis, source code version control, or any ot...

Limitation on configuration paths

I just discovered a strange limitation in the number of paths that can be placed in a custom configuration. It seems that the max number is 5 (last .ini property is LibPathName4). Is it confirmed ? Considering that two entries are usually already filled with things like: %astrobe%\Lib\STM32L152 %ast...

program exit

What's the internal behavior in case of omitting an endless loop at the end of the main program module?

Bitfields

It seems that the BFI and BFX procedures only work with constants for msb and lsb.
Is this confirmed? If so, what's the reason?

C code

Is there any way to integrate (link) existing Cortex M7 libraries or object files (e.g. coming from C code) with the overall Oberon code
when building a custom application?
If so, how to call C functions from Oberon modules ?

serial links

Let assume ASTROBE for Cortex M7 and the Nucleo-F767ZI board as target. How many independent serial "channels" would be available and how they are supported by the IDE and Oberon APIs? In fact, port naming is a bit confusing. If I correctly interpreted the documentation: - the ST-Link always uses US...

Re: underscore usage

that's good. must module names be always equal to their filenames (excluded the extension)?
is there a mandatory extension or in principle any reasonable extension could be used? some systems use .obn other .mod and so on...

underscore usage

Is the underscore accepted for all identifiers, even for lower case names?
Is it accepted for module names and module filenames?

Re: Arduino Due

Thanks. I think that the bossac utility should be the tool for uploading compiled images.
Will try to follow your hints.
