Arduino Serial Monitor hangs after 384 characters about azure-iot-developer-kit HOT 10 OPEN

It works well in Windows with your sample code

, will try to repro in macOS.

The root cause is that the underlying serial port software (screen) we depends on in macOS has limited read buffer. So if you want to read a long string from serial port, you need to split it into chunks.

Thank you for your reply. This is a bit of a showstopper for my application: I want to port my Lisp interpreter, uLisp, to the AZ3166. You interface to the Lisp REPL using the Arduino Serial Monitor:

On other Arduino platforms this works fine; you can paste in Lisp programs and execute them. However, on the AZ3166 as soon as you try to paste in any significant program the Arduino IDE crashes or hangs up.

Why is this not a problem on other Arduino platforms?

Can I rewrite the serial interface to remove the restriction?

Any other suggestions? Thanks,David

Is there any progress on this?

As I said in a previous post, this isn't a problem with most other platforms supported by the Arduino IDE (for example, ATSAMD21, ATSAMD51, ESP32, nRF52840). My test program works fine on those.

It therefore must be possible to implement Serial in a way that doesn't impose a 384-character limit. Is there some way I can contribute to fixing this?

@dooriya any progress on this?

I tried increasing the buffer size by editing the line in BufferedSerial.h from:

BufferedSerial(PinName tx, PinName rx, uint32_t buf_size = 128, uint32_t tx_multiple = 4, const char* name=NULL, int sample_rate = 115200);

to:

BufferedSerial(PinName tx, PinName rx, uint32_t buf_size = 1024, uint32_t tx_multiple = 4, const char* name=NULL, int sample_rate = 115200);

but it didn't seem to help. Any other suggestions?

Normally the input will be shorter than 384 characters. You may need to split long string to chunks and limit each input to 384 characters as a work-around.

Thank you for the reply.

My input is not normally shorter than 384 characters, as I'm uploading Lisp programs, and I can't easily break them into chunks. One program may be more than 384 characters. So this essentially makes the MXChip IoT DevKit unusable for my application.

As I mentioned in an earlier message this isn't a problem with most other platforms supported by the Arduino IDE (for example, ATSAMD21, ATSAMD51, ESP32, nRF52840).
