  Re: How advanced can RCX programming be?
 
(...) Depends how hard you want to work. With LegOS or pbForth, which replace the official firmware, you can program the hardware at the machine level, so you can do very advanced stuff. With NQC (or RoboLab) you're still limited by Lego's firmware, (...) (25 years ago, 10-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics)
 
  How advanced can RCX programming be?
 
I got my RIS a couple of weeks ago, and I have been building simple robots and programmed them using the program on the RIS cd. I´ve heard that you can program the RCX in very advanced ways, multitasking and so on. How advanced can it be? How do you (...) (25 years ago, 10-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: OO programing in RCX
 
Hi Mathew, There are no objects on the RCX, in the sense that there are no vtables on the RCX. I made no changes to spirit.ocx. But I definitely think of the RCX code in terms of objects now. There are "brain" objects, "map" objects, "identity" (...) (25 years ago, 10-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  RcxCC and tabs
 
I finally pulled out my RCX and Legos last night and played with them for the first time in almost a year. My quick project was to take apart my old adder/subtractor platform and rework it with a rotation sensor inline with the driving motor to act (...)

  TpForth Project ?
 
Ralph, You might want to check out the TPForth Developer Studio, a cross compiling Forth system for embedded apps. Seems to have a nice IDE (though not in Forth) that should be quickly adaptable to support pbForth. And it's free to non-commercial (...) (25 years ago, 10-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.pbforth)
 
  Re: OO programing in RCX
 
(...) I'm curious -- are you making it so you can think about your RCX program in OO terms, or just the VB program that sends opcodes? (25 years ago, 10-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: (no longer Failed) Getting LegOS 0.2.2 working on Windows
 
Way to go Paolo! So the only thing that needs to be changed is replace my patch to loader.c with yours? I'll put that onto arthurdent. Glad that it's finally solved. Now, i'll try to get Martin's LNP stuff working on windows. Peter BTW A happy new (...) (25 years ago, 10-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: OO programing in RCX
 
Hi Eric, There always Visual Basic. I'm currently building a few ActiveX controls which sit on top of Spirit. So far its working nicely and is a big improvement over the non-class method of VB coding I used in my original prototype. David Leeper (...) (25 years ago, 10-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: OO programing in RCX
 
Hi Eric, there's a patch in the works to give legOS support for most of C++ - virtual functions and the lot. Markus. (25 years ago, 10-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  OO programing in RCX
 
Hi folks, I am an OO guy. Is there any any OO programming tools in RCX. I know there are LegOS, NQC, and so on. I have been addictted to OO and Java for couple of years. Some guys are working in developing JVM for RCX. I am looking forward any good (...) (25 years ago, 10-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
