Although updating liblvgl is less cumbersome now that it is removed from the kernel, we still need to do the following to update liblvgl:
Copy all the header files from LVLG's repo to include/liblvgl
Copy all the source files from LVLG's repo to src/liblvgl
Update all the includes in the LVGL files to match the PROS project structure
Update include/liblvgl/fonts/lv_font.h to include our custom fonts that llemu depends on
My Proposal
Fixing the font issue:
1) Store the fonts that llemu depends on in a vector graphics file
2) On build, the makefile creates the lvgl font.c files
3) The fonts are declared in a new pros_line.h file so we don't have to add then to lv_font.h
Automated update script:
The script should not run automatically when LVGL updates, since we want to force someone to make sure everything works and builds properly
These are the things I think the script needs to do:
1) Check the latest release tag on LVGL's repo. If we are up to date, do nothing
2) Otherwise, clone the repo as a submodule
3) Copy all the headers to include/libvgl
4) Copy all the c files to src/liblvgl
5) Run through all the copied files and update the includes to be absolute and follow the PROS project structure.
