[Xc3sprog-users] Hello

[Eric J. <jo...@mw...>]

XC3Sprog users, 

I'm hosed with my thesis right now and haven't had time to touch the
code; in the meantime I've given dmitry commit access to 1. apply his
patches and 2. perhaps begin working through the submitted list of
patches from other users, such as uwe. I worry they might overlap a bit,
so this isn't a trivial task. Let me know if you have any questions :) 

If you're receiving this and you're not on the list feel free to add
yourself :) And if you submit a patch and feel like we're ignoring you,
please ping us. 
		...Eric

I tried to have my patches (nearly) independant from each other.

To get names right:

Eric = Eric Jonas == The one who created the sourceforge project

I didn't see Dimitry involved in any newsnet discussion around XC3SPROG yet.

There are also some more cleanup patches in my tree. Theu are needed to run
gcc with the -WALL option.
Much more delicate will be the needed encapsulation for
other transport layers, like the JTAG machine of the FTDI FT2232 ( which I
have pending on my machine) and perhaps the FX2 transport layer used in
Antti Lukats  Xilinx USB Blaster clone.

Cheers

  Correct!

I agree; I think there's some substantial work to be done with regard to
factoring out the JTAG controller, the UI, and the low-level transport
drivers. The code is C++ so it would be nice if we could make good use
of the design features that the language provides us. 

Also, I found Andrew Rogers original style a bit difficult to read, so
if anyone else does, as well, we might try just a basic style clean-up
once the latest patches are applied.
