| | | | | USB, Windows, legOS
|
| Attention everyone trying or have gotten the USB IR tower to work under windows running legOS. I have some patches from at certain Jin Sato that are supposed to allow one to upload programs and the legOS kernel via the USB IR tower. First off I am (...)

| | | | | BricxCC release 3.3.2.13
|
| Yesterday, I uploaded release 3.3.2.13 of BricxCC to my website: (URL) version fixes the access violation on calling the UpgradeRegistry method at startup (not all users encountered this problem). I am beginning to implement the "save desktop" (...) (23 years ago, 4-Dec-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

| (...) If I remember correctly, the tty devices will block in open() until they see some handshake (perhaps DCD) from the other side, while cu devices open right away and ignore handshake. I'd suggest taking a look at the code that initializes the (...) (23 years ago, 4-Dec-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

| (...) 8?) Only suggestion I have here is the Darwin developer mailing list(s). Or even the doco with their version may explain how to build a cross-compiler. They may have removed support, though unlikely if configure accepted the h8 target. They (...) (23 years ago, 3-Dec-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
| | | | | Use RCX-ROM-image in a H8/3294?
|
| Hi all, I downloaded and decompiled the ROM-image of my RCX. It uses a H8/3292 which is only available as a Mask-ROM-type. When I look at the code (and at (URL) of course) and compare the addresses with the adress space map in the datasheet of the (...) (23 years ago, 3-Dec-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

| (...) Dave, first thank you for NQC and its Mac support. If only its collegues weren't such a headache! I am using a serial tower with a Keyspan adapter and the setup works great for NQC following your readme file. I had been wondering though, (...)

| (...) I was able to get NQC working with the USB tower under Mac OS X pretty easily. IMHO, support for an application to directly access USB devices is pretty good. If anyone is trying this, feel free to grab the OSX/USB code I wrote for NQC (...) (23 years ago, 3-Dec-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

| (...) You mean USB on Mac OS X, or the USB tower specifically on any platform? You are really screwed if you need a serial driver on OS X. Since no serial hardware exists on post-98 Apple machines, OS X omits the legacy serial driver APIs. USB is (...) (23 years ago, 3-Dec-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

|
| (...) Looks like you're probably the first to try this, so good luck! But if the Darwin version of cc can be built to support the h8, you're still gonna have to (most likely) make changes to firmdl & dll programs to get them working with the Mac. Do (...)
