[Ovmsdev] Framework DBC

Hi Mark,

I was looking for ideas to implement the code to decode and encode CAN
Messages, I found this interesting :

https://github.com/jmagnuson/canparse

Is doing what we want to do, what do you think ?

I have a question about this :

The dbcSignal name is defined in the DBC as the name of an OVMS metric.
Each dbcSignal object contains an m_metric, as a pointer to an OVMS metric,
that can be set during initialisation based on a simple lookup of the
metric name. That is in dbcSignal::AssignMetric(). I have done that in the
dbcSignal constructor and SetName() functions, although it makes our DBC
slightly non-standard conformant by allowing periods (“.”) in identifiers.

 Example sample dbc file :

VERSION "A version string°"

BO_ 2364539904 EEC1 : 8 Vector__XXX
 SG_ Engine_Speed : 24|16 at 1+ (0.125,0) [0|8031.88] "rpm" Vector__XXX
BA_ "SingleFrame" BO_ 2364539904 0;
BA_ "SPN" SG_ 2364539904 Engine_Speed 190;
CM_ BO_ 2364539904 "Engine Controller";
CM_ SG_ 2364539904 Engine_Speed "A description for Engine speed.";

the metric can be dynamically build like :
 dbc + NodeName + SignalName =>  dbc.eec1.engine_Speed

But is that case, I don't know how I can manage to use this metric on
charts because if the dbc file is not loaded, the metric doesn't exist. And
if I want to use standard metric how can we map/link signal in dbc file to
standard metric ?

Or It's just I idea, with the config vehicle, we define custom metrics we
need in the code, and find a way to save somewhere matrix like :
custom.metric.a = byte for signal A from Message J

regards,
Olivier
