Description
I’ve got LVGL 8.3.11 running on my ESP32-S3, but when the LVGL heap is out of memory, it’ll hang, because LV_ASSERT_HANDLER is defined to while(1); I’d like to be able to trap this condition during development and print the assert in the ESP console. Will this require a custom lv_conf.h, or is it possible to configure through the idf.py menuconfig? I’ll gladly consider any guidance on this topic.
What MCU/Processor/Board and compiler are you using?
ESP32-S3, ESP-IDF v5.1.2, ESP GCC12.2.0
What do you want to achieve?
I’d like to redirect LV_ASSERT_HANDLER to hook the libc assert handler so that I can get a synchronous result on the console rather than a watchdog timer error later.
What have you tried so far?
I tried adding a configuration options for it in Kconfig.projbuild, but I can’t figure out how to #define CONFIG_LV_ASSERT_HANDLER assert(0);, I can only seem to get it #define CONFIG_LV_ASSERT_HANDLER "assert(0);", (of course, this doesn’t work).
I tried adding CONFIG_LV_ASSERT_HANDLER=assert(0); to the top-level cmake file, but that resulted in ‘Function-style preprocessor definitions may not be passed on the compiler command line because many compilers do not support it.’
I tried adding a managed_components/lv_conf.h, just for testing it contains only #error (my lvgl is in managed_components/lvgl__lvgl), but it doesn’t seem to be included in the build, as the #error is not hit.
Code to reproduce
Add the relevant code snippets here.
The code block(s) should be between ```c and ``` tags:
#include "lvgl.h"
void app_main(void)
{
LV_ASSERT_HANDLER
}
Currently, I get:
E (8929) task_wdt: Task watchdog got triggered. The following tasks/users did not reset the watchdog in time:
E (8929) task_wdt: - IDLE (CPU 0)
E (8929) task_wdt: Tasks currently running:
E (8929) task_wdt: CPU 0: main
E (8929) task_wdt: CPU 1: IDLE
E (8929) task_wdt: Print CPU 0 (current core) backtrace
...backtrace here...
I’d like to get(or generally redirect the macro):
assert failed: example_main.c:10(0)
