Maybe as an extended goal it could be nice to try the libraries<br>> already in RSB:<br>> <br>> <a href="https://git.rtems.org/rtems-source-builder/tree/rtems/config/graphics" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://git.rtems.org/rtems-source-builder/tree/rtems/config/graphics</a><br>> <br>> Adding a new library would be a very extended goal in my view because it<br>> hast the potential to eat up a lot of time.<br>> <br>> Vijay: I think you most likely need some test application already during<br>> phase 2? So maybe you should add a point that you want to at least start<br>> a fb-console there? Alternatively: Some simple test application that<br>> just draws some dots or lines?<br>> <br>> In phase 3 it would be great to have the graphics libraries as extended<br>> goal (lower priority than cleanup and getting code merged).<br>> <br>> Hi,<br>> <br>> Thanks for the notes. I have added a point about writing a test<br>> application in phase 2 <br>> and also mentioned the intention to use the RSB graphics library to get<br>> a GUI after the<br>> code gets merged. <br>> <br>> <br>
<br>It would be great if you could explicitly mention the framebuffer<br>console at end of phase 2 / begin of phase 3. Alternatively (if you<br>don't want a console) a test application with <some graphics library>.<br></blockquote><div>I added it as a point in the beginning of phase3. </div></div></div>
