  Re: threads
 
Thanks Albert (...) still (...) How do I check this? There are no other tasks that can kill threads apart from this one. I also checked process IDs after creation and before killing. Best regards, mike (23 years ago, 16-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: newbie again part 2
 
(...) You could try David Baum's (creator of NQC) simulator, found here: (URL) is 'very alpha', meaning that it's in its early stages of development and uses Java, so be ready to ask more questions :) Good luck and hope you get your RCX soon!

  newbie again part 2
 
Another doubt: When I'm programming with NQC, is there a way to run the program (simulate its behavior actualy) without the RCX (because I don't have it yet)?

  Re: threads
 
some suggestions: 1) random_delay = random()/1000000; LegOS uses 16 bit integers, meaning the largest value an integer can have is something like 65535. The above statement is meaningless 2) (...) If you kill a thread, make sure it's still a valid (...) (23 years ago, 15-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

Hi everybody, a need some explanation about NQC. What I have to do is this: I have Lego Dacta's Control Lab (#9701) and I want to program it using NQC.

  Re: Robolab and 3rd party camera
 
As far as I know, any functionality that uses the webcam will not work in version 2.5. As a temporary solution, you could use an external program to capture a webcam image, and then use the image loading VI in RoboLab to work with it. I haven't (...)
