Possible to Have a "UserKinematics" Option?

[Tumblek]

Hello,

An idea. Further to my question 91 in the iMXRT1062 discussion, I thought perhaps myself and others could proceed to experiment with their own kinematics if a user-defined kinematics setting was possible? Sorry if this seems naive.

So for example in grbl.c this line would include "USER_DEF_KINEMATICS" and look like this:

#if (COREXY || WALL_PLOTTER || DELTA_ROBOT || POLAR_ROBOT || MASLOW_ROUTER || USER_DEF_KINEMATICS) && !defined(KINEMATICS_API)
#define KINEMATICS_API
#endif

Then kinematics files could be added without interferring with the "core".

Many thanks in advance

Your idea will not work, you will have to add USER_DEF_KINEMATICS as a compiler argument in the same as you would add KINEMATICS_API to avoid changing the core. If using platformio add -D KINEMATICS_API to build_flags. For other processor you may define it in CMakeLists.txt, by editing a settings dialog or some other file depending on the build environment.

Many thanks Terje,

I know you are busy - so thank you.

I will look into this more.
