Script for EtherCAT XML and SII EEPROM generation

Hi,

    I've put together a little Python script to input a description of the EtherCAT slave PDO layout (in the form of a vaguely C-like domain specific language) and output EtherCATInfo XML, PDO header and C source files, SSI EEPROM bin and header files. 

    The aim is to reduce the pain level associated with keeping all this stuff synchronized.

     Alpha quality at the moment. Using this to develop a product on the AM335x and it works for me.

  • Hi Dave,

    great to see a customer providing valuable information and even tools on our E2E forum! Again I would like to thank you for putting our IA-SDK to the test and sending back all that feedback. I highlighted that also to our development team and hope they wil confirm the other issues/comments soon. Then we can close the issues here.

    If I had the power I would give you double 'points' :-).

    Regards.
