  Re: How advanced can RCX programming be?
 
Hi Tobias, If you're a computer programmer, I'd definitly suggest using something other than the RCX Code method of writing programs for the RCX. NQC is a nice environment if you know C. If you know a language that supports ActiveX, you can program (...) (26 years ago, 10-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: How advanced can RCX programming be?
 
(...) Depends how hard you want to work. With LegOS or pbForth, which replace the official firmware, you can program the hardware at the machine level, so you can do very advanced stuff. With NQC (or RoboLab) you're still limited by Lego's firmware, (...) (26 years ago, 10-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics)
 
  How advanced can RCX programming be?
 
I got my RIS a couple of weeks ago, and I have been building simple robots and programmed them using the program on the RIS cd. I´ve heard that you can program the RCX in very advanced ways, multitasking and so on. How advanced can it be? How do you (...) (26 years ago, 10-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: OO programing in RCX
 
Hi Mathew, There are no objects on the RCX, in the sense that there are no vtables on the RCX. I made no changes to spirit.ocx. But I definitely think of the RCX code in terms of objects now. There are "brain" objects, "map" objects, "identity" (...) (26 years ago, 10-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: OO programing in RCX
 
(...) I'm curious -- are you making it so you can think about your RCX program in OO terms, or just the VB program that sends opcodes? (26 years ago, 10-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: OO programing in RCX
 
Hi Eric, There always Visual Basic. I'm currently building a few ActiveX controls which sit on top of Spirit. So far its working nicely and is a big improvement over the non-class method of VB coding I used in my original prototype. David Leeper (...) (26 years ago, 10-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: OO programing in RCX
 
Hi Eric, there's a patch in the works to give legOS support for most of C++ - virtual functions and the lot. Markus. (26 years ago, 10-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  OO programing in RCX
 
Hi folks, I am an OO guy. Is there any any OO programming tools in RCX. I know there are LegOS, NQC, and so on. I have been addictted to OO and Java for couple of years. Some guys are working in developing JVM for RCX. I am looking forward any good (...) (26 years ago, 10-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: RF Connection To RCX
 
(...) Yep! I am going to make the RF/IR adapter plug in front of the RCX. And make my RF tower to replace the IR tower. I know the IR carries on 38.5KHz. Does it mean both transmt/receive signals working in the same 38.5KHz? If so, how can I solve (...) (26 years ago, 10-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: RF Connection To RCX
 
(...) If you take an COTS rf module, such as those from Siemens or Montorolo, or for example the bluetooth sample module, (though I used one from a cheap radio shack wireless phone) you'll find that the di and do have very similar voltages and (...)
