Support for the emWin GUI library from Segger.

Dependents:   lpc4088_displaymodule_emwin

This library contains the porting layer needed to start working with emWin from Segger. Details about emWin can be found both segger.com as well as lpcware.com.

The high performance emWin embedded graphics library developed by SEGGER Microcontroller is now offered by NXP Semiconductors in library form for free commercial use with NXP microcontrollers.

For a better description of what is included and the limitations, see emWin Graphics Library.

Note

The emWin library and PNG support files must be downloaded as the downloaders contains the license info. The steps are described in the readme.h file.

    emWin Graphical Library
    -----------------------
    According to http://www.lpcware.com/content/project/emwin-graphics-library:
    
    "The high performance emWin embedded graphics library developed by SEGGER 
     Microcontroller is now offered by NXP Semiconductors in library form for 
     free commercial use with NXP microcontrollers."
    
    Follow the link above to read more about the graphical library and available
    features.
    
    NOTE: The emWin library cannot be used in the online compiler for legal
          reasons. You have to export the project and then follow the instructions
          below to download emWin and then modify your local project.
    
    How to get it
    -------------
    The library must be downloaded from the page above and at the time this
    document was written the latest version was emWin 5.24h with the direct
    link: http://www.lpcware.com/system/files/NXP_emWin524h_libraries.exe
    
    Download the executable, run it and have it extract the files to the emwin/
    folder. After extracting the archive, the emwin/ folder should contain the
    following:
    
        emWin_Config\
        emWin_header\
        emWin_library\
        readme.txt
        
    The the 5.24h version (and possibly other later versions as well) is missing
    PNG support but the manual (available on the linked page above) has instructions
    on how to add it. Download www.segger.com/link/emwin_png.zip and extract it
    into the png/ folder. After extracting the folder should contain one or more
    version folders. This is what the png/ folder may look like:
    
        emWin_V5.18/
        emWin_V5.28/
        
    Delete the version that you don't need (probably the oldest one).
    
    Updating the project
    --------------------
    When this project was exported it did not have the correct paths and files
    needed by emWin (for lisence reasons). This is what you have to do in your
    IDE to get it to work:
    
        Keil uVision 4:
        ==============
        1) Open the project
        2) Select the Project->Manage menu
        3) Add a new Group "emLib"
        4) Add all DMemWin/png/emWin_V5.28/GUI/PNG/*.c files "emLib" group
        5) Add DMemWinGUI/emwin/emWin_library/Keil/emWin_M4.lib to the "emLib" group
        6) Close the dialog
        
        NXP LPCXpresso IDE:
        ==================
        1) Open the workspace
        2) Import the project from the exported zip file
        3) Right-click on the DMemWin folder in the Project Explorer and select Refresh...
        
        Other IDEs:
        ==========
        Do the corresponding actions for your IDE but remember to use the correct
        library file.
        
        If the IDE doesn't get the paths correct by the exporter then you might have
        to add the following to the include path:
        
            DMemWin/emwin/emWin_header/
