Unsupported ASCII characters #1686
-
|
Double quote (ASCII character 0x22) causes svdconv to raise an error saying that the character is unsupported. Are there any other such ASCII characters? Is there really a need to prevent using double quotes in comments? The headers generated with double quotes in the comments are valid. Thanks in advance! |

Thanks for raising this topic. Could you please move this topic to CMSIS 6 https://github.com/ARM-software/CMSIS_6/discussions. Regarding your question: You are probably aware that SVD files are not only used for generating CMSIS compliant device header files. These files are also used by debuggers to display peripheral registers. In many implementations the description is displayed e.g. as hover over and when SVD was started the aim was to keep things simple and straight forward. |
