Please help. I just recently got a Sharp GP2D12 ir distance ranger plus RCX interface device from mindsensors. It is pretty cool, however I am getting alot of flucuation in the readings and in turn I think that i am losing out on range. The maximum (...) (22 years ago, 29-Nov-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

(...) Hi Chris, Thanks for your reply. You're reply confirmed my suspicion about leaving the port object lying around. I think I'll try your first suggestion of 'deleting' the port object at the end of each routine. I hope you dont mind me asking (...) (22 years ago, 29-Nov-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.java)

(...) This probably is an issue of leaving your Port object around after you're done using it. You have a memory leak in each routine, because you call 'new RCXPort();' without ever calling 'delete port;' on the object. You should definitely call (...)
