Re: [Paparazzi-devel] Maximum speed?

[Felix Ruess]

Hi Ori,

Well, a static inline function in a header file like that is essentially like a macro.

As I wrote before guidance_h_SetMaxSpeed is only there to adhere to the generated settings handler naming convention and used as an alias for gh_set_max_speed.

The compiler will inline and optimize this, so it is basically the same as if the generated settings functions would directly call gh_set_max_speed.

Could have been done using "#define guidance_h_SetMaxSpeed gh_set_max_speed" to the same effect...

To include a header file:

<header>

#include "guidance/guidance_h.h"

</header>

Cheers, Felix

guidance_h_SetMaxSpeed() isn't a macro. It's an inline function, and it's declared static in a header file, which is not a great idea. In fact, putting all of the autopilot code in a header file is an odd choice...

How do I go about including a header from a flightplan, anyway?

You should be able to simply call gh_set_max_speed(speed) directly from your flightplan (but you probably need to include the header).

This doesn't work as the code is currently written. guidance_h_SetMaxSpeed() is declared static (in a header file, no less) and the header isn't included in the generated header file that gets compiled into the autopilot firmware, so compilation fails because the reference to guidance_h_SetMaxSpeed() ends up being non-static.

Removing the static modifier gets the code to compile, but that's not ideal. 

The correct way to deal with this is to get the generated code to include the header file where guidance_h_SetMaxSpeed() is declared, but it doesn't seem like it's intended to be part of an official API (if one even exists...)

I have to wonder why the autopilot logic is generated into a header file. That seems like an odd (and potentially bad) choice. Is there a good reason for that?

Afaik, the idea was to use the function guidance_h_SetMaxSpeed:

Not sure however it there any other convenience functions for that.

The wiki has very little to say about setting the maximum speed:

http://wiki.paparazziuav.org/wiki/Flight_Plans#Dynacmically_adjustable_maximum_speed

Basically, nothing.

Is there a way to set the speed of travel between waypoints in a flightplan
for a rotorcraft?

Thanks,

Ori
