Pulse SDK Version 1.1.1 (Mar 29, 2011)
- fixed bug with alarm putting watch to sleep
- fixed compileandload for -n
- added makefile for local compiling (see http://www.getinPulse.com/guide/local for instructions)

Hurrah! I was able to use the summon-arm-toolchain to build arm-none-eabi-gcc (after unsuccessfully fighting with the raw sources from the FSF). I haven't been able to successfully load anything that uses resources other than the stock firmware (with -n), although non-resource using programs (like my cavern.c) load just fine after a local build.

Any chance of getting the sources to the libraries? The two things I would specifically like to do are take advantage of the code in spiflash.o in libkernel.a to allow storage of non-image resources in the flash (I can probably figure out how to use spiflash_read() works through the calls in get_resource_metadata(), but that takes time away from writing more useful programs), and to remove the Bluetooth stack (since I always seem to need to drop back to the fail-safe loader, and the library seems like it would save around 14 KB when I remove bt.o from libkernel.a and relink my executable).

Is the first 4 KB reserved for some sort of permanent resident boot loader? It looks like several of the routines make indirect calls through a jump table at 0x20, which doesn't seem to be present in the compiled binary.

Correct, the first 4kB hold our bootloader, but since the LPC only allows chunks of 4kB to be overwritten, we decided to include a few other functions to fill up that space.

Good call on eliminating the BT stack. It's easy to fall back to the fail-safe firmware. That would free up a ton of space for cool games and watchface apps...

I noticed that the new notification app includes a charging icon when the watch is charging, that changes when it's full. That icon is not present in the version of the notification app included with the SDK.

How do I get that information (the charging status of the watch)? Could the source version of the notification app be updated to the latest source? I've been basing my app on that, and it'd be nice to include charging status.

@dang, we haven't exposed charging status in the SDK because...it just doesn't work that well yet. Sorry about that! We'll fix it (ie make it actually work, right now it ONLY displays when charge is full/not-full) and then get it out to you guys.

Hey Hudson,

Thanks for the tip on using the summon-arm-toolchain. Did you have any issues with openocd? Seems that the new package doesn't have a configure script (odd):

x openocd-master/.git/hooks/pre-commit.sample
x openocd-master/.git/hooks/pre-rebase.sample
x openocd-master/.git/hooks/prepare-commit-msg.sample
x openocd-master/.git/hooks/update.sample

I'm going to try and pull the openocd code from http://openocd.sourceforge.net/ and see if I can get it to work using that.
