|

Hi Pavel, check out the program loader. Basically, you have to register your own port handler for incoming packets on the PC. You should also acknowledge them in some way, so the RCX knows what's going on. Maybe IR networking should become secure. (...) (25 years ago, 11-Nov-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

(...) You can use lnp_logical_write. But - the IR tower automatically turns off if nothing has been sent through it, so in order to see the data coming in, you have to keep sending something through the tower. [...] -- Regards, Modemch (25 years ago, 11-Nov-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

Does anybody have an example of a LegOS program that sends data back from the RCX to the PC? Is this possible also with SPIRIT.OCX poll/datalog protocol? Tnanks, Pavel. e-mail: petrovic@ifi.ntnu.no (25 years ago, 11-Nov-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

Hi Martin, the FD_ZERO bug sounds interesting. Maybe there's a way to work around this issue in a more portable way? Like, remove /usr/include from the Makefile and hope for the best?

Apparently, standard gcc include files are processed as well. This should never happen, as legOS defines everything on its own. Maybe there's an additional command-line switch for that? -Y or something? Good luck, Luis - I have access to a NT box in (...) (25 years ago, 9-Nov-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

I'm afraid these are the same errors that were reported with 0.2.1. It would appear that it is looking at a very long and convoluted path which happens to include the standard gcc, not just the cross-compiler. But that is just a guess based on a (...)

That's me, trying to use legOS 0.2.2 on WinNT with CygWin. I'm using the same tools that worked for me for legOS 0.1.7. Make complains when it tries to build dll, specifically when it tries to compile loader.c. I get a bunch of redefined symbols and (...) (25 years ago, 8-Nov-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

Hello, legOS-0.2.2 is out. Generating user programs doesn't require perl anymore, and several bugs have been fixed. Get it at (URL) "Nieder mit den Zitaten!" -Markus L. Noga <markus@noga.de> (25 years ago, 7-Nov-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos, lugnet.robotics.rcx)

Whatever happened to the arbitrary motor code? Lou had given me the impression (ages ago) that there was a solution for 0.2.0, but I don't see it. Is someone still working on it?
