If you decide to use LegOS you won't be needing nor will you have the chance to use NQC because a RCX with LegOS loaded won't understand nor respond to any standard firmware commands.

LegOS is an operation system ( a firmware replacement in itself) It's like a mini UNIX system, that will run true C compiled programs on RCX. NQC on the other hand, all it does is translate a NQC program into LEGO pCode that will be *interpreted* by (...) (23 years ago, 21-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

Hi everybody, I'm starting to use Lego products and I'm having problems to undrestand a few things.

(...) Static DOES matter; it declares the method as being a "class" method, rather than a normal instance method. I believe there is no implicit 'this' parameter and therefore it can be treated like a normal function. Of course, it can't be linked (...) (23 years ago, 21-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

(...) No, static doesn't matter but it is possible the calling conventions of C and C++ might be different (I don't know of a platform where that is the case for a an extern function), so you might need to specify C linkage, as in: extern "C" int (...)
