I needed this utility for something, and I thought it was generally useful enough to be added to core. Perhaps this would be better placed in a different repo.
I struggled a lot deciding on a width for the integers in
struct debouncer
.uint32_t
requires a bit more memory than I was comfortable with. I thought about using macros to define several instances of the API (debouncer8
,debouncer16
,debouncer32
), but that was making the code too complicated to be readable. I also considered a single syscfg setting which determined the integer width for all debouncers, but I didn't think that was very useful, and it still made the interface difficult to read due to the need for macros. In the end, I just settled on what I think works in most cases:uint16_t
