emul_lcd's Introduction

emul_lcd

What is it ?

This library display a virtual 16x2 LCD on your computer ! It's written in C++ and is (hopefully) cross-platform.

For now, only a debug VisualStudio solution in present in the project but this will evantually change.

This library will be near 100% compatible calls with the regular LiquidCrystal Arduino library.

It can be very useful if you're working on your PC and don't have access to actual hardware.

100% compatible you said ?

Well, keep in mind, this is still Work in Progress, so not all calls are implemented yet.

Any future plans ?

More displays !

emul_lcd's Issues

Static or Shared library

right now the library isn't pre-compiled like a classic arduino lib.
However, you need to include SFML dependencies to compile...
Maybe it's a good idea to pre compile the lib to use on visual studio for instance
