New C library available

[xsamc]

We've been developing a pure C library to allow users to program xCORE devices directly from C.
The key features are:

• Support for channel and streaming channels. This includes full interoperability with xC channels and the ability to write custom channel protocols
• Support for ports and clock blocks
• Support for timers
• Support for events so that xC ‘select’ functionality can be implemented
• Support for hardware locks

We'd love to hear what you think of it - it's available on GitHub, and a PDF of the documentation is attached to this post.

This library is a work in progress, and we hope to add more functionality to it in the coming months, including:

• Interrupt handlers
• Task spawning
• Full worked examples

The current usage examples have been developed in the form of tests, and are all included as subfolders in the tests/ directory.

If you have any issues or feature requests, it's best to submit them via a GitHub Issue so that we can track them.

Cheers,
Sam
