Arduino C++:F()宏在函数内部有意义吗

Arduino C++: Does the F() macro make any sense inside a function?

本文关键字:函数 内部 有意义 C++ Arduino      更新时间:2023-10-16

F()宏用于将全局变量存储在程序内存(闪存)中,而不是动态工作内存中,这样就有更多的可用内存。

然而,我在ESP8266库中发现了这个混乱的例子。它工作得很好,但是我对函数中F()宏的使用有一些疑问。在函数内部使用它有用吗?


示例代码:

#include <ESP8266WiFi.h>
#include <WiFiClient.h>
#include <ESP8266WebServer.h>
#include <DNSServer.h>
#include <ESP8266mDNS.h>
#include <EEPROM.h>
/*
This example serves a "hello world" on a WLAN and a SoftAP at the same time.
The SoftAP allow you to configure WLAN parameters at run time. They are not setup in the sketch but saved on EEPROM.
Connect your computer or cell phone to wifi network ESP_ap with password 12345678. A popup may appear and it allow you to go to WLAN config. If it does not then navigate to http://192.168.4.1/wifi and config it there.
Then wait for the module to connect to your wifi and take note of the WLAN IP it got. Then you can disconnect from ESP_ap and return to your regular WLAN.
Now the ESP8266 is in your network. You can reach it through http://192.168.x.x/ (the IP you took note of) or maybe at http://esp8266.local too.
This is a captive portal because through the softAP it will redirect any http request to http://192.168.4.1/

函数存储在程序空间(程序内存)中,因此该函数中的字符串也被编译到程序空间中。那么,为什么他们使用F()宏来强制将字符串存储在程序空间中,而它通常已经从程序空间加载了呢?我认为这是不必要的开销,或者这样做有什么好处吗?


例如,在源代码中,您可以在函数中找到许多这样的赋值:

void handleWifi()
{
String Page;
Page+= F("<html><head></head><body>"
"<h1>Wifi config</h1>");
.........
.........
}

这里将发生的是字符串从程序空间加载到动态内存中(作为变量"Page")。那么,这里真正的交易是什么呢?然而,我认为C++编译器会做得更好(优化),因为它只是一个简单的赋值。

我是对的还是错的?

好吧,我错了,对不起,F()在函数内部也有意义。为了证明这一点,我做了一些测试。

用这个简单的草图做了一些测试(取消对要测试的草图的注释):

// Printing 33 chars
// 1.
//void printStr() { Serial.println( "0123456789ABCDEFGHo!@#$%^&*()_+<>?" ); }
//void printStr() { Serial.println( F("0123456789ABCDEFGHo!@#$%^&*()_+<>?" )); }
// 2.
void printStr() { String s = "0123456789ABCDEFGHo!@#$%^&*()_+<>?"; Serial.println( s ); }
//void printStr() { String s; s+=F("0123456789ABCDEFGHo!@#$%^&*()_+<>?"); Serial.println( s ); }
void setup() {
Serial.begin(9600);
}
void loop() {
printStr();
delay(1000);
}

结果:

不使用F()26816字节

The sketch uses 263136 bytes (25%) of program storage space. Maximum is 1044464 bytes.
Global variables use 26816 bytes (32%) of the dynamic memory. 
Remain 55104 bytes for local variables. Maximum is 81920 bytes.

使用F()26788字节

The sketch uses 263212 bytes (25%) of program storage space. Maximum is 1044464 bytes.
Global variables use 26788 bytes (32%) of the dynamic memory. 
Remain 55132 bytes for local variables. Maximum is 81920 bytes.

-与F()相差28字节。但好吧,现在我们肯定知道了!;-)

以这种方式工作的背景信息:

RAM被分成不同的块,用于不同的目的。有一个存储所有全局和静态变量的区块(也称为BSS和数据区域)。函数中创建的局部变量存储在堆栈中,最后是堆,动态变量存储在堆中。

如果你想更多地了解这些记忆块是如何相互关联的,你可以在维基百科上阅读更多。


从本文复制的信息

这可能是因为这里描述的原因:http://playground.arduino.cc/Learning/Memory

可用的闪存(程序)内存比SRAM多得多当您使用Arduino语言创建变量时,例如:

char message[] = "I support the Cape Wind project.";

您正在从中复制33个字节(1个字符=1个字节,加上终止的null)在使用之前将内存编程到SRAM中。33字节并不多1024字节池中的内存,但如果草图需要一些大的不变的数据结构,例如要发送到的大量文本例如,使用闪存的显示器或大型查找表(程序存储器)直接用于存储可能是唯一的选择。待办事项使用PROGMEM关键字。
