(...) Folks who read rtlToronto can skip this part. I added it because I'm cross posting to robotics.rcx. For those who don't know, rtlToronto had a contest with robots playing Connect Four. Creating a robot for this is double faceted. Getting (...) (21 years ago, 6-Feb-04, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto, lugnet.robotics.rcx)

(...) One other thing you could try is to physically disconnect and then reconnect the USB tower from the system. I've found that (on Win98 at least) the driver sometimes freezes up and won't open until after I do that little dance. Also, you could (...)

(...) Yes, I escaped the characters. The identical code works on the Win2K machine and does not work on the win98SE machine with identical LEGO drivers installed. Hmmmm Ralph (21 years ago, 5-Feb-04, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.rcx.pbforth)

(...) Did you escape the backslashes in the C string? CreateFile("\\\\.\\LEGOTOWER1", GENERIC_READ | GENERIC_WRITE, 0, 0, OPEN_EXISTING, 0, 0); Just a thought... it's easy to forget sometimes. Mark (21 years ago, 5-Feb-04, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.rcx.pbforth)

I have another problem with the RotationNavigator class. I try to program a navigating, behavior controlled robot. At the moment it has two behaviors: behavior1 (b1): moving to a specific point with gotoPoint(...) and back to the starting point with (...) (21 years ago, 5-Feb-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.java)

Claude, I've written a little C program that tries to open "\\.\LEGOTOWER1" and on otherwise identical computers (except one is running Win98SE and the othre runs Win2K) only the Win2K machine can open the file.
