LwPRINTF v1.0.1 documentation

Welcome to the documentation for version v1.0.1.

LwPRINTF is lightweight stdio manager optimized for embedded systems. It includes implementation of standard output functions such as printf, vprintf, snprintf, sprintf and vsnprintf in an embedded-systems optimized way.

_images/logo.svg

Features

  • Written in ANSI C99, compatible with size_t and uintmax_t types for some specifiers

  • Implements output functions compatible with printf, vprintf, snprintf, sprintf and vsnprintf

  • Low-memory footprint, suitable for embedded systems

  • Reentrant access to all API functions

  • Operating-system ready

  • Requires single output function to be implemented by user for printf-like API calls

  • With optional functions for operating systems to protect multiple threads printing to the same output stream

  • Allows multiple output stream functions (unlike standard printf which supports only one) to separate parts of application

  • Added additional specifiers vs original features

  • User friendly MIT license

Requirements

  • C compiler

  • Few kB of non-volatile memory

All releases are available on Github releases area.

Clone from Github
First-time clone
  • Download and install git if not already

  • Open console and navigate to path in the system to clone repository to. Use command cd your_path

  • Clone repository with one of available 3 options

    • Run git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/MaJerle/lwprintf command to clone entire repository, including submodules

    • Run git clone --recurse-submodules --branch develop https://github.com/MaJerle/lwprintf to clone development branch, including submodules

    • Run git clone --recurse-submodules --branch master https://github.com/MaJerle/lwprintf to clone latest stable branch, including submodules

  • Navigate to examples directory and run favourite example

Update cloned to latest version
  • Open console and navigate to path in the system where your resources repository is. Use command cd your_path

  • Run git pull origin master --recurse-submodules command to pull latest changes and to fetch latest changes from submodules

  • Run git submodule foreach git pull origin master to update & merge all submodules

Note

This is preferred option to use when you want to evaluate library and run prepared examples. Repository consists of multiple submodules which can be automatically downloaded when cloning and pulling changes from root repository.

Add library to project

At this point it is assumed that you have successfully download library, either cloned it or from releases page.

  • Copy lwprintf folder to your project

  • Add lwprintf/src/include folder to include path of your toolchain

  • Add source files from lwprintf/src/ folder to toolchain build

  • Copy lwprintf/src/include/lwprintf/lwprintf_opts_template.h to project folder and rename it to lwprintf_opts.h

  • Build the project

Configuration file

Library comes with template config file, which can be modified according to needs. This file shall be named lwprintf_opts.h and its default template looks like the one below.

Note

Default configuration template file location: lwprintf/src/include/lwprintf/lwprintf_opts_template.h. File must be renamed to lwprintf_opts.h first and then copied to the project directory (or simply renamed in-place) where compiler include paths have access to it by using #include "lwprintf_opts.h".

User manual

How it works

LwPRINTF library supports 2 different formatting output types:

  • Write formatted data to user input array

  • Directly print formatted characters by calling output_function for every formatted character in the input string

Text formatting is based on input format string followed by the data parameters. It is mostly used to prepare numeric data types to human readable format.

Note

LwPRINTF is open-source implementation of regular stdio.h library in C language. It implements only output functions, excluding input scanning features

Formatting functions take input format string followed by (optional) different data types. Internal algorithm scans character by character to understand type of expected data user would like to have printed.

Every format specifier starts with letter %, followed by optional set of flags, widths and other sets of characters. Last part of every specifier is its type, that being type of format and data to display.

Tip

To print number 1234 in human readable format, use specifier %d. With default configuration, call lwprintf_printf("%d", 1234); and it will print "1234".

Check section Format specifier for list of all formats and data types

Character output function

API functions printing characters directly to the output stream (ex. lwprintf_printf), require output function to be set during initialization procedure.

Output function is called by the API for every character to be printed/transmitted by the application.

Note

Output function is set during initialization procedure.

If not set (set as NULL), it is not possible to use API function which directly print characters to output stream. Application is then limited only to API functions that write formatted data to input buffer.

Notes to consider:

  • Output function must return same character as it was used as an input parameter to consider successful print

  • Output function will receive (int)'\0' character to indicate no more characters will follow in this API call

  • Single output function may be used for different LwPRINTF instances

Format specifier

Syntax

Full syntax for format specifier is %[flags][width][.precision][length]type

Flags

Flags field may have zero or more characters, and in any order. List of supported flags:

Character

Description

minus -

Left-align the output of this placeholder. The default is to right-align the output

plus +

Prepends a plus for positive signed-numeric types. positive = +, negative = -

space `` ``

Prepends a space for positive signed-numeric types. positive = `` , negative = ``-. This flag is ignored if the + flag exists

zero 0

When the width option is specified, prepends zeros for numeric types. The default prepends spaces, if this flag is not set

apostrophe '

The integer or exponent of a decimal has the thousands grouping separator applied.

has #

Alternate form: For g and G types, trailing zeros are not removed. For f, F, e, E, g, G types, the output always contains a decimal point. For o, x, X types, the text 0, 0x, 0X, respectively, is prepended to non-zero numbers.

Width

Width field specifies a minimum number of characters to output, and is typically used to pad fixed-width fields in tabulated output, where fields would otherwise be smaller. Please keep in mind that this parameter does not truncate output is input is longer than width field value.

Concerning width field, you may:

  • Ignore it completely, output does not rely on width field by any means

  • Write a fixed value as part of format specifier. Number must be an integer value

  • Use asterisk * char and pass number as part of parameter. printf("%3d", 6) or printf("%*d", 3, 6) will generate the same output.

Tip

When fixed value is used to set width field, leading zero is not counted as part of width field, but as flag instead, indicating prepend number with leading zeros

Precision

Precision field usually specifies a maximum limit on the output, depending on the particular formatting type. For floating point numeric types, it specifies the number of digits to the right of the decimal point that the output should be rounded. For the string type, it limits the number of characters that should be output, after which the string is truncated.

Precision field may be omitted, or a numeric integer value, or a dynamic value when passed as another argument when indicated by an asterisk *. For example, printf("%.*s", 3, "abcdef") will result in abc being printed.

Length

Length field may be ignored or one of the below:

Character

Description

hh

For integer types, causes printf to expect an int-sized integer argument which was promoted from a char

h

For integer types, causes printf to expect an int-sized integer argument which was promoted from a short

l

For integer types, causes printf to expect a long-sized integer argument. For floating point types, this has no effect

ll

For integer types, causes printf to expect a long long-sized integer argument

L

For floating point types, causes printf to expect a long double argument

z

For integer types, causes printf to expect a size_t-sized integer argument

j

For integer types, causes printf to expect a intmax_t-sized integer argument

t

For integer types, causes printf to expect a ptrdiff_t-sized integer argument

Specifier types

This is a list of standard specifiers for outputting the data to the stream. Column Supported gives an overview which specifiers are actually supported by the library.

Specifier

Supported

Description

%

Yes

Prints literal % character

d i

Yes

Prints signed int. No difference between either of them

u

Yes

Prints unsigned int

f F

Yes

Prints double in normal fixed-point notation. f and F only differs in how the strings for an infinite number or NaN are printed (inf, infinity and nan for f; INF, INFINITY and NAN for F).

e E

Yes

Prints double in standard form [-]d.ddd e[+-]ddd. e uses lower-case and E uses upper-case letter for exponent annotation.

g G

Yes

Prints double in either normal or exponential notation, whichever is more appropriate for its magnitude. g uses lower-case letters, G uses upper-case letters. This type differs slightly from fixed-point notation in that insignificant zeroes to the right of the decimal point are not included. Also, the decimal point is not included on whole numbers.

x X

Yes

Prints unsigned int as a hexadecimal number. x uses lower-case and X uses upper-case letters

o

Yes

Prints unsigned int in octal format

s

Yes

Prints null terminated string

c

Yes

Prints char type

p

Yes

Prints void * in an hex-based format. Reads input as unsigned int by default.

a A

Not yet

Prints double in hexadecimal notation. Currently it will print NaN when used

n

Yes

Prints nothing but writes the number of characters successfully written so far into an integer pointer parameter

Notes about float types

It is important to understand how library works under the hood to understand limitations on floating-point numbers. When it comes to level of precision, maximum number of digits is linked to support long or long long integer types.

Note

When long long type is supported by the compiler (usually part of C99 or later), maximum number of valid digits is 18, or 9 digits if system supports only long data types.

If application tries to use more precision digits than maximum, remaining digits are automatically printed as all 0. As a consequence, output using LwPRINTF library may be different in comparison to other printf implementations.

Tip

Float data type supports up to 7 and double up to 15.

Additional specifier types

LwPRINTF implementation supports some specifiers that are usually not available in standard implementation. Those are more targeting embedded systems although they may be used in any general-purpose application

Specifier

Description

B b

Prints unsigned int data as binary representation.

K k

Prints unsigned char based data array as sequence of hex numbers. Use width field to specify length of input array. Use K for upper-case hex letters, k for lower-case.

    lwprintf_printf("% *k\r\n", (int)LWPRINTF_ARRAYSIZE(my_array), my_array);
}

LwPRINTF instances

LwPRINTF is very flexible and allows multiple instances for output print functions.

Note

Multiple instances with LwPRINTF are useful only with direct print functions, suchs as lwprintf_printf. If application uses only format functions which write to input buffer, it may always use default LwPRINTF instance which is created by the library itself

Use of different instances is useful if application needs different print configurations. Each instance has its own print_output function, allowing application to use multiple debug configurations (as an example)

Tip

Use functions with _ex suffix to direcly work with custom instances. Functions without _ex suffix use default LwPRINTF instance

Note

It is perfectly valid to use single output function for all application instances. Use check against input parameter for lwprintf_t if it matches your custom LwPRINTF instance memory address

Thread safety

LwPRINTF uses re-entrant functions, especially the one that format string to user application buffer. It is fully allowed to access to the same LwPRINTF instance from multiple operating-system threads.

However, when it comes to direct print functions, such as lwprintf_printf_ex() (or any other similar), calling those functions from multiple threads may introduce mixed output stream of data.

This is due to the fact that direct printing functions use same output function to print single character. When called from multiple threads, one thread may preempt another, causing strange output string.

Multiple threads printing at the same time without thread-safety enabled

#include "lwprintf/lwprintf.h"

/* Assuming LwPRINTF has been initialized before */

void
task_1(void* arg) {
	lwprintf_printf("Hello world\r\n");
}

void
task_2(void* arg) {
	lwprintf_printf("This is Task 2\r\n");
}

/*
 * If thread safety is not enabled,
 * running above example may print:
 *
 * "Hello This is Task 2\r\nworld\r\n"
 */

LwPRINTF therefore comes with a solution that introduces mutexes to lock print functions when in use from within single thread context.

Note

If application does not have any issues concerning mixed output, it is safe to disable OS support in OS environment. This will not have any negative effect on performance or memory corruption.

Tip

To enable thread-safety support, parameter LWPRINTF_CFG_OS must be set to 1. Please check Configuration for more information about other options.

After thread-safety features has been enabled, it is necessary to implement 4 low-level system functions.

Tip

System function template example is available in lwprintf/src/system/ folder.

Wait for a mutex until ready (unlimited time)

Return

1 on success, 0 otherwise

Parameters
  • [in] m: Mutex handle to wait for

uint8_t lwprintf_sys_mutex_release(LWPRINTF_CFG_OS_MUTEX_HANDLE *m)

Release already locked mutex.

Return

1 on success, 0 otherwise

Parameters
  • [in] m: Mutex handle to release

Test results

Library is put under several tests to ensure correct output format. Results are underneath with information about number of passed and failed tests.

Note

Majority of failed tests are linked to precision digits with floating-point based specifiers. This is considered as OK since failures are visible at higher number of precision digits, not affecting final results. Keep in mind that effective number of precision digits with float type is 7 and for double is 15.

With the exception to additional specifiers, supported only by LwPRINTF library, all tests are compared against stdio printf library included in Microsoft Visual Studio C/C++ compiler.

Examples and demos

Various examples are provided for fast library evaluation on embedded systems. These are prepared and maintained for 2 platforms, but could be easily extended to more platforms:

Warning

Library is platform independent and can be used on any platform.

Debug for STM32L4

Simple example is available, that runs on STM32L432KC-Nucleo board and shows basic confiuration for library. On-board Virtual-COM-Port through embedded ST-Link provides communication to MCU via UART peripheral.

Output function writes data to PC using USART2 hardware IP.
