Guidance regarding Source Code

[SnowCrash]

Hi,

I've been looking into the Duet's source code and here I can see all the different libraries for the firmware, but where can I find the main source code that employs these libraries?

Many thanks in advance,
SnowCrash

Go up one folder for that one. The Duet folder contains code used by the legacy Duets (06 and 085) only.

Thanks, @dc42, good to know!

Ok, I went one up ('src'), still seeing only *.h and *.c files. Is there no single main *.c file that ties them all together? and, if not, could you please explain how does it work exactly?

The "main program" file is in project CoreNG because it does initialisation first. It calls UrgentInit and later AppMain in the RepRapFirmware project.

Make sure you use the v2-dev branches of RepRapFirmware and CoreNG because that's where development takes place at present.

I can only see 'UrgentInit' being called from '/src/Platform.cpp', but that's under the main tree, not v2-dev branch.

Can't see 'AppMain' being called anywhere.

I know it's a pain to create, but I think a wiki with some overview and guidance to help understand the software structure and flow process would come a long way in helping developers contribute to the duet project.
