Added description to eds objects #52

Closed JasinskiRafal closed 1 year ago

JasinskiRafal commented 1 year ago

Emotas DeviceExplorer supports description for every dictionary object, in the current version of the program each description in the .xdd projects are discarded.

These changes add every line of the description field from the ODEditor to the exported .eds file appended with ;;

A brief description of the motivation for the change would be helpful. And of course what the change does.

trojanobelix commented 1 year ago

In the standard (DSP306), the keyword "description" is only used in the [FileInfo] section. Not for the object section.

But I only have excess to CiA Draft Standard Proposal 306 Version 1.0 Date: 31.05.2000). So if newer versions of the standard allow the keyword "Description" in the object section, please add a note.

Can you apply the free EDS checker CANchkEDS to a created eds/dcf? Can you provide an example eds and dcf?

No feedback. So I think this PR ist not standard conform. Sorry.
