Having the version macro in the config.h and consequently in the main
vehicle header means that whenever the version changes we need to
compiler the whole vehicle again. This would not be so bad if we weren't
also appending the git hash in the version. In this case, whenever we
commit to the repository we would need to recompile everything.
Move to a separate header that is include only by its users. Then
instead of compiling everything we will compile just a few files.
Most of AP_Progmem is already gone so we can stop including it in most
of the places. The only places that need it are the ones using
pgm_read_*() APIs.
In some cases the header needed to be added in the .cpp since it was
removed from the .h to reduce scope. In those cases the headers were
also reordered.
prog_char and prog_char_t are now the same as char on supported
platforms. So, just change all places that use them and prefer char
instead.
AVR-specific places were not changed.
Include board-specific files only when the board is used. Since these
should be exceptional cases, let the includer handle the ifdef instead
of putting ifdefs in every platform-specific header.
In the future we should evaluate whether the HAL for the board should
instantiate this.
This commit changes the way libraries headers are included in source files:
- If the header is in the same directory the source belongs to, so the
notation '#include ""' is used with the path relative to the directory
containing the source.
- If the header is outside the directory containing the source, then we use
the notation '#include <>' with the path relative to libraries folder.
Some of the advantages of such approach:
- Only one search path for libraries headers.
- OSs like Windows may have a better lookup time.
