From: Gerhard Sittig Date: Sun, 5 Sep 2021 10:45:26 +0000 (+0200) Subject: input/vcd: detect and skip string data types (value not used) X-Git-Url: https://sigrok.org/gitaction?a=commitdiff_plain;h=c1310f7deba7ac1f4ce75fbb5cc9b498ee66aa49;p=libsigrok.git input/vcd: detect and skip string data types (value not used) The nMigen utility was reported to emit string values in VCD files (by means of the pyvcd Python module). The $var declaration specifies the 'string' data type, and text values are prefixed with 's' similar to integer or real numbers and bit vectors. It is desirable to process these files and skip the unsupported type which does not map to any sigrok channel type. Add support to detect the type in declarations and change entries, skip these change entries and emit warnings so that users remain aware of the incomplete import. Check the validity of the entry though, to keep robustness of the existing implementation of the VCD input module. The validity check is an educated guess that was written in the absence of an official specification or any public documentation, encodes rather arbitrary assumptions. Deals with cases that were reported, may need more test coverage and future tweaking. This version forbids whitespace in values, and exclusively accepts printable ASCII in the string presentation, with a few escape sequences. Empty strings are covered. This also resolves bug #1757.
