  Re: tweaking around dlcd_show( )
 
(...) Since writing this, I have set up a LegOs build environment, so had a play with it. It doesn't seem very useful the way it is written. See my bit about it below. (...) I had a bit of a go doing this as well, and since I didn't know what the (...) (23 years ago, 27-Aug-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: tweaking around dlcd_show( )
 
(...) Nope - bit_set(0xef46,0x4) will work, but not dlcd_show(0xef46,0x4), as it needs only 1 parameter. (...) Choosing the types of the struct elements is the problem - these are passed to the h8's bset instruction. First, I tried void* & char, but (...)

(...) Use NQC for that. Wonderful 2.0 support. Dean -- Dean Husby LUGNET Member #320 TFM's LEGO Workshop - www.akasa.bc.ca/tfm The Vancouver LEGO Club - www.akasa.bc.ca/vlc/ (23 years ago, 27-Aug-01, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  EmuLegOS support for windows
 
The subject pretty much says it all. You'll need cygwin, and then it works. There is now LNP support for EmuLegOS on windows now due to the differences in the WinLNP API and the RCX LNP API. mark (23 years ago, 26-Aug-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: RCX 2.0 Arrays
 
(...) Fixing that has been on the to-do list for a long time. But it just isn't a high priority since there are easy workarounds. Right now adding USB support is top priority. Dave Baum (23 years ago, 26-Aug-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  Re: tweaking around dlcd_show( )
 
(...) Ooops! I obviously wasn't looking at it properly last night (only browsing through the zip file). As 'dlcd_show' is defined as a macro that takes one parameter, but uses it twice to each of BIT_OF and BYTE_OF, which in turn both take 2 (...)

  Re: RCX 2.0 Arrays
 
The NQC manual says... "Neither arrays nor their elements can be used with the increment (++) or decrement (--) operators." I guess it's not quite C :-) "Frank Caggiano" <caggiano@crystal-objects.com> wrote in message (...) (23 years ago, 25-Aug-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  One other thing arrays and RCX 2.0
 
NQC complains with he same error message if i do an arrray[x]++; That is I use a variable for the index rather than a constant. (23 years ago, 25-Aug-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  RCX 2.0 Arrays
 
I wanted to increment the value contained in an array. I did array[0]++; NQC complained: ERROR expression is not a legal target for assignment. The carrot under array[0]++ pointed to the index value, that is the 0. It seems NQC thought I was trying (...) (23 years ago, 25-Aug-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

  Re: RIS2.0/legOS/linux and win98

Thanks Martin, I tried this too but it doesn't work : progress.c:27: macro `dlcd_show' used with too many (2) args progress.c:27: macro `BIT_OF' used with just one arg progress.c:27: macro `BYTE_OF' used with just one arg The hint seems to fit two (...)

  Re: Who can write a send_msg() and get_msg() in legOS for us?
 
I found there were three commands as below and a demo program tm-and-ir.c for standard IR communication before legOS 0.1.7, but now they exist no longer in legOS 0.2.4, I think these commands are very useful, can you reuse them, Luis? size_t (...)

  Who can write a send_msg() and get_msg() in legOS for us?
 
Can you write a pair of function to support standard firmware IR communiation between RCX and RCX or Remote control? They are send_msg() and get_msg(), it is easy to communicate between NQC and legOS, so we can use NQC if the program is very simple (...)

  Re: tweaking around dlcd_show( )
 
Hi, I haven't used LegOs (yet), but looking at the dlcd_show function, it expects 2 parameters. The defines are also for 2 parameters, so you would need to define and use it like this: int progressPattern[PATT...S_NB][2]={ {LCD_4_BOTL} , (...)
