parameter-framework: Drop of github upstream version v3.2.4

2016-03-05T01:42:09+00:00

Main features are:
-Networking code may now be opted-out
     (for android build: no socket opened for user build)
-Get rid of python prebuild for XML generation

Remove using std::XXX from headers

2014-09-11T12:25:02+00:00

This is a bad practice to have using in headers because it pollutes the
namespace of any user of that header.

Add explicit API to append parameter path to error log

2014-06-24T09:51:36+00:00

BZ: 183857

Explicit API names makes the code easier to read, allowing even
to remove some comments.
This patch adds an API to append the parameter path to the error log.

Restore autosync of string parameter

2014-06-24T09:51:35+00:00

BZ: 183857

Sync for String parameter accessed from parameter handle API
does not work.

This patch allows synchronisation for string parameter accessed
from parameter handle APIs.

[PFW] Take into account base offset when accessing value of parameters

2014-02-12T16:03:47+00:00

BZ: 88357

This patch aims to offer the possibility of accessing the value of
parameters from a Configuration blackboard instead of Main blackboard.
The read/write operation is now relative to the base offset of the
ancestor element associated to the Configuration.
The base offset is stored in the ParameterAccessContext.

PFW: Remove names from PFW license header

2014-02-12T16:03:11+00:00

BZ: 47701

As parameter framework code is proprietary, it should not be signed (patrick Benavoli name inside the header).

PFW: Type safe dynamic parameter access

2014-02-10T16:15:00+00:00

BZ: 15065

Replaced high level string based parameter access interface with typed ones.
Now hosting platforms that want to control parameters must instantiate a
CParameterHandle object out of the desired parameter path.
CParameterHandle object may be used to access any kind of parameters, whatever
its internal type, whether it's an array or not.
Note that non rogue parameters offer a read access only. Any attempt to write
them will fail.
CParameterHandle objects offer the following kind of parameter accessing
interfaces:
- Boolean
- Integer (signed or unsigned)
- Double
- String
Note that those interfaces are available for scalar as well as for array
parameters.
Not all parameter types support all access kinds. Naturally, array parameters
are only accessed via array interfaces while scalar parameters are managed
through scalar interfaces.
Here's a list of parameter types that may be controlled through each kind of
access interface:
- Boolean access: boolean, bit (bit size must be one);
- Integer access: integer (sign must match), boolean (unsigned access only,
value <= 1), enumerations;
- Double access: for now only fixed points (soon integers will support them
also through platform adaptation objects)
- String access: all parameter types

In addition, cleaned up parameter access related code so as to make it more
generic and reusable.

Changed version to 2.0.0

PFW: Virtual subsystems

2014-02-10T16:15:00+00:00

BZ: 14587

- Added the possibility to declare parameters which have no real hardware
implementation. They are only intended to configure the hosting platform.
- A new subsystem type "Virtual" has been introduced to support those
hardwareless parameters.
- Virtual subsystems need no Mapping declaration in the structure
