  Re: Opening COM port error
 
(...) This probably is an issue of leaving your Port object around after you're done using it. You have a memory leak in each routine, because you call 'new RCXPort();' without ever calling 'delete port;' on the object. You should definitely call (...)

  Opening COM port error
 
Hi guys, First of all, thanx Brian, but I managed to solve the weird firmdl.bat problem by fooling around with different batteries and IR range levels. Secondly,I'm trying to send data packets to the RCX through java methods called from a C++ (...) (21 years ago, 28-Nov-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.java)

(...) <snip> (...) I'm quite interested in the alternative firmware for myself.

  Re: Robolab, byte codes and assembler
 
(...) It really is. I do think somebody made a mistake specific to the rotation sensor, though. I haven't decided yet whether it's the firmware, the sensor, or just the overall mechanism. I can understand how it got past quality control - sometimes (...) (21 years ago, 27-Nov-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)

  Re: Robolab, byte codes and assembler
 
OK You do something great, and all the world is looking at it, finding the finest detail one could have made much better. That's the power of internet-exchange. Don't take this personally. I only wanted to remind the great job they did at LEGO's (...) (21 years ago, 27-Nov-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)
