  Re: kernel hacking in lnp.c (problem)
 
(...) The best way to do this kind of thing is to save the info you want to display in a variable or something, set a flag saying somethings there, and let another task display the data & reset the flag. You can see a simple implementation of this (...) (24 years ago, 1-Mar-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: kernel hacking in lnp.c (problem)
 
(...) Posting your code would help a lot :-). lnp_receive_packet() is called after the integrity layer has verified the checksum from an interrupt handler. So your code should be short e never call functions that wait or may cause a task switch. dll (...) (24 years ago, 1-Mar-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

  Re: Garbage Collection
 
Hi Chris, Hemorrhage you will. Instead of creating new objects in a loop, reuse existing objects. (This is a good move anyhow to improve the performance of your application.) You may have to change some of your own APIs to accomplish this, but it (...) (24 years ago, 1-Mar-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.java)

  Garbage Collection
 
I'm a tad fuzzy on working without GC. If I create objects in an inner loop, is that memory lost? Will I not hemorrhage memory like a sieve? (24 years ago, 1-Mar-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.java)
 
  Re: NQCEdit
 
(...) Actually, this is a GOOD thing. I've never seen a compiler that doesn't save the source first. Compilers can occasionally do wierd and not-so-wonderful things which may include full or partial system crashes. Given this possibility, you WANT (...)

  Re: Positioning with the RCX - a pragmatic approach
 
I have daydreamed about the concept of 'mapping' a room using the datalog. The general idea would be to use the rotation sensor to measure out a room in 20 X 20 cm sections and log a 'zero' for clear sections and a 'one' for obsructed sections. I (...)

  Re: Cygwin question(s)
 
I've used Cygwin some time ago, so my knowledge is not the best. Here are some thoughts based on my experience with Linux. Hope they help. (...) bash uses the backslash (\) as an escape-character.
