| (...) So what your saying is I should split my program into more functions not less, so that the local ints are destroyed and available for re-use. That's a great idea, it's the complete opposite of my question but fulfills my goal perfectly :-). (...) (19 years ago, 13-Dec-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
| | | | | Re: Memory question
|
| (...) Most functions in NQC are in-line functions, so in a sense they probably *are* in main(). One thing I do is place all my initalization code (as much as possible) into inline functions. That way, when the compilier runs through, it can allocate (...) (19 years ago, 13-Dec-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
| | | | | Memory question
|
| Say I had a program that has a very large block of start-up/calibration code that is run once at the top of the program. Does it make any difference if I keep it in the "Main()" task, or put it in a function? I mean from the point of stack space (...) (19 years ago, 13-Dec-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
| | | | | Re: avoid messaging

| (...) I'd agree that a physical block is the easiest, although there is a software solution. The RCX can not recieve a command while it's transmitting - so if you saturate the transmitter with things to do, it will not be able to "look" for any (...)

| | | | | RE: avoid messaging
|
| Yes, I indeed have an attachment which will act like blockage, but not a full one though. Sounds like this is the fastest and easiest to do. I fully understand the opcodes concept, as I myself wrote compile code before. However, these kids age only (...) (19 years ago, 5-Dec-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab, lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
| | | | | Re: avoid messaging
|
| (...) If you have an event waiting for a message, I doubt it will have much impact on the speed of the rest of the program. However, this will not catch the messages you're looking for. You can't use the "mail" function to receive op-code, such as (...) (19 years ago, 5-Dec-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab, lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
| | | | | avoid messaging
|
| Hi In order to avoid unwanted interruption, such as remote shutdown, from other RCX during execution time, I wonder if the only thing can be done to safe-guard my RCX will be having an independent task dedicated to receive message (mail). This, of (...) (19 years ago, 5-Dec-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab, lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
| | | | | Re: Bluetooth

| Beware of the fact that the outputs on the RCX output PWM. You will probably want rectification, and need smoothing to get a nice constant voltage (some regulator in the LM series) to power the board. Anyway - it sounds like a really good idea - I (...)
