  Re: PDF (was Re: legOS docs - what do people want?)
 
Well, I've waited and waited, but nobody has volunteered to send me the existing docs to convert to PDF. I'm afraid I don't have the facilities myself to download the entire documentation tree at the LegOS site. I thought that freely offering my (...)

  Enhancing the motor driver
 
Hi, does somebody feel up to renovating the motor driver? We have discussed a new PCM scheme earlier on the lego-robotics list, it's just a question of implementing it. This will require changes to direct_motor.c and direct_motor.h and a little (...) (26 years ago, 23-Feb-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

It's Doxygen. (URL) doc++ is also a viable alternative, but I've used doxygen before in Qt-based projects, where it is clearly superior. (26 years ago, 23-Feb-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Anyone building a Java VM based on legOS?
 
At least as far as CE is concerned, you need at least 8Mo to run a java VM. This is due to the size of the classes however. On the other hand there are smartcards which have an embedded VM cf: (URL) believe the VM can probably develloped but the (...) (26 years ago, 22-Feb-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

(...) Well what about ONE html file. Nobody ever said you had to fragment html files. Or whatabout a group but zipped or tar.gzed (26 years ago, 22-Feb-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: PDF (was Re: legOS docs - what do people want?)
 
Well as long as there is an html version I don't care. I still think pdf is a pain to read because it doesn't scroll well. (26 years ago, 22-Feb-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: PDF (was Re: legOS docs - what do people want?)
 
Hello. The API documentation tool I use can generate HTML, LaTeX and manpages. Unless Dimiti expands its capabilities to also generate PDF - or somebody points me to a better tool and volunteers to convert the sources that exist already - HTML (...)

  Re: Anyone building a Java VM based on legOS?
 
I would be concerned about memory usage. The current Palm machines have one and two megabytes of RAM, the CE machines even more. That's a lot more than the 32kB the RCX 1.0 has (though if you think about it, for the price, compared to the palm (...) (26 years ago, 22-Feb-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
