It accepts a -boolean; for example:: - - ASSERT(state == WAIT); - -Zero is false and any other number is true. If the boolean is true, -the assertion passes and the program continues as usual. If it is -false, the assertion fails: the program is halted, debug information -is printed to USART2, and the status LED begins to throb (it's -noticeably different from blinking). The debug information is printed -at 9600 baud and consists of the filename and line number where the -ASSERT() failed. - -Including assertions in a program increases the program size. When -using libmaple **from the command line only**, they can be disabled by -making the definition :: - - #define DEBUG_LEVEL DEBUG_NONE - -before including either wirish.h or libmaple.h. In this case, all -assertions will pass without any lost clock cycles. Note that this -will **not work in the IDE**; even with this definition, assertions -will still be enabled. |
