  Re: Got Motors?
 
(...) Who exactly is selling the motor kits? (24 years ago, 19-Feb-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos, lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Got Motors?
 
If you need motors, check out toys. They are clearing out their stock (I've heard April they're outa-here) and everything is on sale. The 8735 Technic motor kit was 24.?? last time I looked. Shipping is a tad steep, so you may want to get several at (...) (24 years ago, 19-Feb-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos, lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: execi and C++
 
(...) I've spoken too fast. Re-reading the error message I saw the real problem. "controlThread" or "&controlThread" are the same. You should add a cast: execi(&controlThread, 0, (char **)NULL, 2, DEFAULT_STACK_SIZE); NULL is defined mem.h as (...) (24 years ago, 18-Feb-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: execi and C++
 
(...) In C you should call execi() like this: execi(controlThread, 0, NULL, 2, DEFAULT_STACK_SIZE); /* Removed `&' */ since a function is like an array name: it is an address. Probably the same applies to C++. bye Bernardo (24 years ago, 18-Feb-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  execi and C++
 
Hi all, sorry if this is a rediculously trivial problem, but I'm having some problems with execi on legos0.2.5 , I can't seem to get g++ to compile when I use it, I pass it a 'correct' function.....like so : int controlThread(int argc, char **argv) (...)

  Re: LegOS and the Downloader....
 
(...) Nick, 0.2.5 is the latest, but there may be a packaging problem as Luis has said. In regards to Makefiles: In the LEGOS_ROOT directory should reside Makefile.common and Makefile.user In your application directory should reside Makefile (no (...)

  Re: LegOS and the Downloader....
 
(...) I can do the packaging, if you'd like. I'm not sure what to do once I've created the archive (where do I put it?). If this is ok with you, send me the instructions for posting a release. Alternately, I can email the package to Paolo and he can (...) (24 years ago, 17-Feb-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: How to read variables from RCX
 
(...) The latest version of the Programmer's Guide (uploaded last night) has an extra section in the back that explains some of the technical details like direct access of data sources, etc. Dave (24 years ago, 17-Feb-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  Re: LegOS and the Downloader....
 
0.2.5 is the most recent, but there have been a number of problems reported with my (admittedly slightly sloppy) packaging of it. There will be an 0.2.6 with fixes for these problems, but unless someone else steps up and does it, it won't happen (...) (24 years ago, 17-Feb-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: LegOS and the Downloader....
 
OK, I tried putting a makefile.common in the root directory(it turns out that I found it in the /util folder). It didn't work. My project folder is "test" and my file is "test.c", so I replaced the Makefile.common in the "test" folder with the (...) (24 years ago, 17-Feb-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: LegOS and the Downloader....
 
I thought that was a little weird that I didn't have a makefile.common in my root legOS directory! Will it work to just copy it from "/legOS/demo/"? I'm going to try it. I'll get back soon. Nick (...) (24 years ago, 17-Feb-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: LegOS and the Downloader....
 
(...) I'm not sure I'm understanding what you have done, so excuse me if I'm a little pedantic. In your root legOS directory you have these files: Makefile.common and Makefile.user. Both are coming from the legOS distribution archive (their length (...) (24 years ago, 16-Feb-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: LegOS and the Downloader....
 
(...) Is your test.c in the demo directory? If not, you have to copy the Makefile from the demo dir to where your test.c is, and change: 1. The line starting KERNEL= should point to your kernel directory. I usually change mine to: (...) (24 years ago, 16-Feb-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
