  RCX to RCX communication
 
I have studied the sources on the WEB for LNP but have not found any examples of C or C++ code for RCX to RCX communication. I have two RCXs and would like to build something that takes advantage of 6 inputs and 6 outputs. Do you have a sample you (...) (22 years ago, 14-Jul-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

  Re: detecting memory leaks
 
In case anyone attempts to use the mm_defrag() posted previously... you will need the following update to mm_try_join() //! check for free blocks after this one and join them if possible /* \param ptr pointer to size field of current block \return (...)

  Re: detecting memory leaks
 
(...) Please, post. (...) I'm guessing you defrag using mm_try_join()? malloc() uses this to defrag the beginning of the pool until it finds a big enough block (which can then be split again if its too big); Defragging during idle would save this (...)

  Re: anyone know how to check free space on RCX?
