dev20220331 excessive calls of formatting routine -> sporadic 'GPS fix lost' events #56

Closed W-Geronius closed 2 years ago

W-Geronius commented 2 years ago

setup: MFD set to display clock page, data arrive from SK .... no further action. sporadic losses of GPS Fix were observed (LED).

From the debug log I assume a coincidence with exessive calls to formatTime and formatDate see attached log, 5 ocurrences observed: at lines 5590, 7771, 10823, 17939 and 18395 this system behaviour has not been observed in any previous version! COM6_putty.log.txt

edit: another log (with a debug text 'GPS fix lost') shows a slightly different picture, but still in context to formatTime / date COM6_putty_2.log.txt

a wonky WiFi adapter (based on RTL8192CU) was the culprit, sorry for the bother
