| The following C `#defines` can be set in code in order to tune the setup for use on different platforms. | ||
|
|
||
| - `MAVLINK_USE_CONVENIENCE_FUNCTIONS` ([protocol.h](https://github.com/ArduPilot/pymavlink/blob/master/generator/C/include_v2.0/protocol.h)): Causes convenience functions to be defined, including: `_mav_finalize_message_chan_send()`, `_mavlink_send_uart()`, `_mavlink_resend_uart()`. To use, add `#define MAVLINK_USE_CONVENIENCE_FUNCTIONS` to your code. | ||
| - `MAVLINK_COMM_NUM_BUFFERS`: Sets the maximum number of comms buffers to be used (comms channels). |

Would I be correct in thinking that you might specify 1 if you knew you had a mavlink component that would only have one connection to the network?

@julianoes OK, I've integrated your suggestions, and have one further question: #492 (comment) If that's correct, is this otherwise OK to go in? |

@auturgy @julianoes This needs review - questions inline because most of what I did was guesses.
Note, there are other defines, but I think they are all internal.
