PRINTF in KDS

aerodame — Tue, 07 Jun 2016 01:22:35 GMT

I'm getting a strange output from PRINTF for formatted printing of floating point numbers using the %f.

Heres's my string...

PRINTF("t:%.6f\tx:%.4f\ty:%.4f\r\n",t,(float) x,(float)y);

But for some reason if I have x = -0.4935 in the debugger The output of the PRINTF for that negative float number is: -1.4935. Is there a bug for negative numbers in PRINTF?

And why doesn't the library just use the standard lower case printf? Why the non-standard uppercase version?

Hello Stephen,

Please tell me the version of KDS, your chip part number, and does your project is MQX project, ksdk project , or PE project

...

About the uppercase PRINTF, there is no special meaning , it also defined from the "printf" .

Kinetis Design Studio Version: 3.2.0

My project is just a new non-RTOS KSDK 2.0 project where I've added source code files that utilize the

#include "fsl_debug_console.h"

To obtain the PRINTF capability.

Platform is the FRDM-K22F.

It appears to me that there might be a bug in the printf capability for floating point numbers that are negative. I will do some additional testing this morning also with integer positive and negative numbers and report back.

Hi Stephen,

I'm using a FRDM-K64F with KSDK_v2. I cloned the hello_world example and placed it in my path as follows:

C:\NXP\KSDK_v2\SDK_2.0_FRDM-K64F_KDS\boards\frdmk64f\user_apps\hello_world_fp

I think you just need to enable the #defines in the Properties->C/C++ Build->Settings->Tools Settings-> Cross ARM C Compiler->Preprocessor

All of the PRINTF/SCANF were=0. I changed to =1.

Regards,

David

I tested on FRDM-K22F successfully too using the standard hello_word example in KSDK_v2.

I didn't have those options in my preprocessor settings, but added them anyway.. no Joy.

I will try your hello project tomorrow in a K22F project to see if it changes anything.

THanks!

Hi Stephen,

Please let me know your results.

Can you post the project you have that is not working?

OK, finally had some time to study this problem from two angles. I'm fairly certain there is a bug in the PRINTF library. Here's a slightly modified version of your helloprintf program with a printout from a positive and negative sine wave of a amplitude 1.0 and 2.0. There is something wrong with float outputs were the negative numbers are offset by -1.

Uploading the example project (complete project that can be imported into KDS).

Hi Stephen

Thank you for the project. A project is like a thousand words ;-)

I think there is an issue as you sate in the printf routine.

Attached is my updated fsl_debug_console.c that made two modifications in DbgConsole_ConvertFloatRadixNumToString() starting at line 611 .

if (r >= 0)

{

fa = fractpart + (double)0.5;

if (fa >= pow(10, precision_width))

{

fractpart++; //DES was intpart++;

}

else

{

fa = fractpart - (double)0.5;

if (fa <= pow(-10, precision_width))

{

fractpart--; //DES was intpart--;

}

Please let me know if this resolves your issue and I will report it to the KSDK_v2 team formally.

Sorry for the hassles.

Regards,

David

Excellent... will try that in a moment...

I have another issue that is troubling me too where when I create a brand new project and try to debug it... the debugger comes up running but doesn't run to main and stop... (in fact, it doesn't even load the code).

I have a mix of cloned projects that I can get to work and then brand new ones that always have this issue... I'm searching through the settings between the PRINTF demo that DOES debug and the brand new ones I have that don't work.

Like I said, I'll start a new topic on this, but be on the lookout for it if you will.

Hi Stephen,

Did it work?

I see others have been helping on your new post. I am following it too.

Yes, did indeed. Thanks so much for the quick response.
