Re: How to free memory after unused imports?

I have had the same experience as Peter. I cleared the sys.modules and delteted everything from the globals and still couldn't free up the whole memory. from gc import collect # @UnresolvedImport from sys import modules, path path.clear() path.insert(0, '') path.insert(0, '/sd') modules.clear() coll...

Re: Freezing Dictonary in Flash

I see. At the moment I don't have that much data, so implementing it as a C module is problaby not worth the effort. I am basically attaching strings to error codes, so freezing the strings in the firmware and then building the dictonary in the source code works for now. If I am reaching the limits ...

Freezing Dictonary in Flash

Hi, I understand that freezing strings in the flash saves RAM in micropython. A source file containing MY_STRING = 'this is a long string, but I want it to be only a machine word in the RAM of the actual devcie' which is frozen into the falsh and then imported saves RAM. Is is also possible to freez...

Re: STM32F429 Flash Memory Size

The filesystem is created by micropython on startup. The file flashbdev.c is defines at which adress and how many blocks are used for the file system. (Previously it was located in the storage.c) #elif defined(STM32F429xx) #define CACHE_MEM_START_ADDR (0x10000000) // CCM data RAM, 64k #define FLASH_...

Re: Btree Module on stm32

Hi, good advice, but I didn't get to compile the firmware for an stm32 port with the BTREE module enabled. When I add the define for BTREE in the mpconfigboard.h, I get the following error: build-mcCPU_F7V01/py/objmodule.o:(.rodata.mp_builtin_module_table+0xc4): undefined reference to `mp_module_btr...

Btree Module on stm32

Hi, I tried to implement the Btree module in a custom board with an stm32F765. When in implement the line "#define MICROPY_PY_BTREE (1)" into the mpconfigboard.h, I get an error when creating the firmware: "In file included from ../../py/objmodule.h:29:0, from ../../py/objmodule.c:30: ../../py/objmo...

Re: socket problem

I am guessing here but maybe try a socket.close() on the socket instance when you are done?
In your case s.close()
Or try garbage collecting manually by using gc.collect(), or both...

micropython.schedule inside class

Hi everyone, catching an CAN bus interrupt in a class and calling a scheduled function leads to a MemoryError. I create a class which inherits from pyb.CAN. I initialize Can, and attach a callback function to it. In the callback function I schedule antoher function uising micropython.schedule(). Whe...
