Firmware for the qbcontrol_hand board of the softhand
Each of the repositories in the following table has a version number composed of 3 numbers in the form: v x.y.z
| Tools [T] | Libraries [L] | Firmware [F] |
|---|---|---|
| qbmove simulink | qbAPI | qbmove firmware |
| qbadmin | qbmove advanced firmware | |
| hand firmware micro |
E.g. xT is the x number of the Tools whereas yF is the y number of the Firmware version.
- Every change in the number z means a change in the respective repo which not implies changes in other repos.
- Every change in the number y in a repo is backward compatible reading the table from right to left. This means that if you have some new feature in a Firmware, you can still use old Libraries and Tools for management, but of course you will not be able to use the new features. In this case the rule is yF >= yL >= yT.
- Every change in the number x means a change which is not backward compatible, hence you will need to update everything to use it. In this case the rule is xF = xL = xT.
Summarising
- z independent
- yF >= yL >= yT
- xF = xL = xT
