[PATCH 23/40] expo: Allow setting the start of the dynamic-ID range

Simon Glass sjg at chromium.org
Thu Jun 1 18:22:47 CEST 2023


Provide a way to set this value so that it is easy to separate the
statically allocated IDs (generated by the caller) from those
generated dynamically by expo itself.

 All text strings are stored in a structure attached to the expo, referenced by
 a text ID. This makes it easier at some point to implement multiple languages or
 to support Unicode strings.
