Reflects increase in max number of LWIP sockets from 10 (Arduino-ESP32 v2.0.0) to 16 (Arduino-ESP32 v2.0.1). Since HomeSpan needs at least 2 (one for Server and 1 free for new connections), this leaves 14 connections for controllers. A big improvement over only having 8!
Constructor now allows you to specify high/low timings for 1-bit and 0-bit, as well as timing for reset delay. Default parameters are included if none are specified.
Also add getPin() to RFControl (which is used by SK68XX Class) as well as boolean operator overrides for both RFControl and PwmPin/ServoPin so that instances can be checked for validity.
Optional method to automatically turn off Status LED after a *duration* seconds. LED will resume normal operation any time it is re-triggered with a new pattern. This also resets the elapsed time used to check for autoOff.
Added true/false parsing to all integer-based Characteristics. Previously true/false was only parsed for BOOL Characteristics. For integer-based on/off Characteristics, the Home App would send a 0 for off, and a 1 for on, consistent with HAP-R2. BUT...when using Home App AUTOMATIONS, the Home App would send true/false for integer-based Characteristics, which is inconsistent with HAP-R2. This meant automations worked with lights (that use the boolean ON Characteristic) but not with fans (that use the uint8 ACTIVE Characteristic).
With this "fix", true/false will be recognized all the time (except for float- and string-based Characteristics. Confirmed that fans now work with Home App Automations.
This allows you to add an optional "description" to a Characteristic. This is not the same as the name of a Service and is generally not used by the Home App. However, it appears to be consumed by the Eve app, which can be helpful in some circumstances when developing custom characteristics.
The update from Arduino-ESP32 2.0.0 to 2.0.1 contained significant changes to the structures used by the IDF for generic timers. This broke the Blinker code (would not compile for ESP32-S2 and C3 chips).
The solution: Modified Blinker::isrTimer() to use a *generic* interrupt-clearing function when available (IDF version >= 4.0.0). Below 4.0.0 the code continues to manually clear the interrupt flag by resetting specific structure variables, though the logic is simpler since this is only needed for the ESP32 chip (the S2 and C3 are not supported in earlier versions of Arduino-ESP32).
This provides for full compatibility with Arduino-ESP32 versions 2.0.1, 2.0.0, and 1.0.6. The use of a generic interrupt clearing function when IDF>=4.0.0 will hopefully make this future-proof to any further changes by Espressif to the underlying timer structures.
The loop over TimedWrites incorrectly erased iterators inside a for-loop. For some reason this never caused an issue on the ESP32, but crashed on the ESP32-C3. Solution is to change the for-loop to a while-loop with proper handling of the iterator when an element is deleted. This appears to fix the problem.
Characteristic::ConfiguredNameStatic() is no longer needed since you can now change permissions on ConfiguredStatic to remove PW with removePerms(PW). Updated Television Example accordingly.
To Do: Add getLinks() and setPerms/addPerms/removePerms to API Reference Documentation
This returns a vector of linked Services that can be used in a for-each loop as such:
for(auto services : getLinks()){ ... }
Must cast services into specific Service type to access anything not generic to the SpanService class
Second optional argument to setVal() determines whether or not HomeSpan sends notification of new value to HomeKit. Default if left blank is "true" for backwards compatibility.
And also converted ERRORS to WARNINGS when a Characteristic that is not in the REQ or OPT list is specified for a Service. This allows the user to add any Characteristic to any Service without forcing an Error (just a Warning).
Ranges are now checked for all Characteristics at the end of the configuration, instead of at the end of each Accessory definition. This is much cleaner and the output is easier to read.
To do: Revisit use of REQ and OPT - what should constitute a fatal error and what should be a warning.
To do: Revisit Character definitions - attempt to normalize using the methods implemented for Custom Characteristics
No need to specify both FORMAT and TYPE. For example, specifying UINT16 automatically sets type to be uint16_t.
To do: Explore if this can be used for standard Characteristics - revisit standard Characteristics definitions and structure to see if it can be simplified.
This "custom" Characteristic is identical to ConfiguredName() but only allows paired-read and notifications. By excluding paired-write it prevents the user from editing the name of a TV input source from the Home App. This is useful when some sources are fixed, such as "netflix" instead of generic, such as "hdmi 1".
Allows you to overlay a carrier wave on the RF Signal - in practice this is only used for IR signals (not RF). Automatically scales frequency to account for 80x difference between APB Clock and Ref Tick Clock depending on which is used. Checks to ensure resulting parameters (high period and low period) are all in bounds (0,65536) and reports an error if they are not.
Added second argument to RFControl(uint8_t pin, boolean refClock=true) to allow choice of Ref Tick (1 MHz) clock or APB (80 MHz) clock. Default is to use 1 MHz Ref Tick.
Also fixed bug in logic that divides clock for ESP32-C3. Factor should be 79, not 80, since divider is apparently configured to divide by factor+1.
