Macro Definition Documentation

#define AVR_SOFT_SPI   0

Define AVR_SOF_SPI nonzero to use software SPI on all AVR Arduinos.

#define DESTRUCTOR_CLOSES_FILE   0

Set DESTRUCTOR_CLOSES_FILE nonzero to close a file in its destructor.

Causes use of lots of heap in ARM.

#define DUE_SOFT_SPI   0

Define DUE_SOFT_SPI nonzero to use software SPI on Due Arduinos.

#define ENABLE_SPI_TRANSACTION   0

Set ENABLE_SPI_TRANSACTION nonzero to enable the SPI transaction feature of the standard Arduino SPI library. You must include SPI.h in your sketches when ENABLE_SPI_TRANSACTION is nonzero.

#define ENABLE_SPI_YIELD   0

Set ENABLE_SPI_YIELD nonzero to enable release of the SPI bus during SD card busy waits.

This will allow interrupt routines to access the SPI bus if ENABLE_SPI_TRANSACTION is nonzero.

Setting ENABLE_SPI_YIELD will introduce some extra overhead and will slightly slow transfer rates. A few older SD cards may fail when ENABLE_SPI_YIELD is nonzero.

#define ENDL_CALLS_FLUSH   0

Call flush for endl if ENDL_CALLS_FLUSH is nonzero

The standard for iostreams is to call flush. This is very costly for SdFat. Each call to flush causes 2048 bytes of I/O to the SD.

SdFat has a single 512 byte buffer for SD I/O so it must write the current data block to the SD, read the directory block from the SD, update the directory entry, write the directory block to the SD and read the data block back into the buffer.

The SD flash memory controller is not designed for this many rewrites so performance may be reduced by more than a factor of 100.

If ENDL_CALLS_FLUSH is zero, you must call flush and/or close to force all data to be written to the SD.

#define FAT12_SUPPORT   0

Allow FAT12 volumes if FAT12_SUPPORT is nonzero. FAT12 has not been well tested.

#define LEONARDO_SOFT_SPI   0

Define LEONARDO_SOFT_SPI nonzero to use software SPI on Leonardo Arduinos. LEONARDO_SOFT_SPI allows an unmodified 328 Shield to be used on Leonardo Arduinos.

#define MEGA_SOFT_SPI   0

Define MEGA_SOFT_SPI nonzero to use software SPI on Mega Arduinos. MEGA_SOFT_SPI allows an unmodified 328 Shield to be used on Mega Arduinos.

#define TEENSY3_SOFT_SPI   0

Set TEENSY3_SOFT_SPI nonzero to use software SPI on Teensy 3.x boards.

#define USE_ARDUINO_SPI_LIBRARY   0

Force use of Arduino Standard SPI library if USE_ARDUINO_SPI_LIBRARY is nonzero. This will override native and software SPI for all boards.

#define USE_MULTI_BLOCK_SD_IO   1

Set USE_MULTI_BLOCK_SD_IO nonzero to use multi-block SD read/write.

Don't use mult-block read/write on small AVR boards.

#define USE_MULTIPLE_CARDS   0

To use multiple SD cards set USE_MULTIPLE_CARDS nonzero.

Using multiple cards costs about 200 bytes of flash.

Each card requires about 550 bytes of SRAM so use of a Mega is recommended.

#define USE_SD_CRC   0

To enable SD card CRC checking set USE_SD_CRC nonzero.

Set USE_SD_CRC to 1 to use a smaller slower CRC-CCITT function.

Set USE_SD_CRC to 2 to used a larger faster table driven CRC-CCITT function.

#define USE_SEPARATE_FAT_CACHE   0

Set USE_SEPARATE_FAT_CACHE nonzero to use a second 512 byte cache for FAT table entries. Improves performance for large writes that are not a multiple of 512 bytes.

#define USE_SERIAL_FOR_STD_OUT   0

For AVR

Set USE_SERIAL_FOR_STD_OUT nonzero to use Serial (the HardwareSerial class) for error messages and output from print functions like ls().

If USE_SERIAL_FOR_STD_OUT is zero, a small non-interrupt driven class is used to output messages to serial port zero. This allows an alternate Serial library like SerialPort to be used with SdFat.

You can redirect stdOut with SdFat::setStdOut(Print* stream) and get the current stream with SdFat::stdOut().
