 | | Version 1.5 - no spirit.ocx - can't use RcxCC
|
|
Teaching with Robolab at the college level, I'd like to use the NCQ environment in class. I'd also like to use the RcxCC "wrapper" since I perceive it to be a little more "user friendly" at their level. Problem is that the new Robolab Version 1.5 (...)

(...) Yes, that seems to be the best way to go about it. (...) Don't we all do? :-) (...) Hmm, yes, thata I did not think about... well, we'll continue using macros! ;-) Thanks for the response. And for NQC. /Vlad (25 years ago, 23-Nov-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

Dave, All of these additions to NQC sound great ... especially the char and bool data types! There is no way that we (all the NQC users) can adequately express our appreciation for all of your work in developing and freely distributing NQC. I hope (...)

(...) I'm not really comfortable with variable-length bit allocations since this isn't something that happens in C outside of structs. But there could still be a couple "smaller" types. Right now an int is 16 bits. Perhaps a char could be 8 bits, (...) (25 years ago, 23-Nov-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

Hi! well, I am missing something in an otherwise great RcxCC... Variable values display in dec/hex/binary would be great, as converting by hand every time is tedious. thanks /Vlad (25 years ago, 22-Nov-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

I am not sure if there is such a wishlist... I remember there was a "call for wishes" for RxCC... The biggest problem with the standard firmware is the small amount of variables. Since not every use of a variable will use all 16 bits, I think it (...) (25 years ago, 22-Nov-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

(...) NQC doesn't use spirit.ocx, so if you're just using the command line version of NQC, don't worry about spirit.ocx. However, if you're using RcxCC, then you'll need to make sure spirit.ocx is installed. Dave Baum (25 years ago, 21-Nov-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

If I remember correctly, you can download spirit.ocx from the mindstorms internet site. I'm not sure if the 1.5 software installs it to HD, the 1.0 did. I never bothered to install the 1.5 upgrade CD. Arjen Dave Crabbe wrote in message ... (...) (25 years ago, 21-Nov-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

I installed the lego robolab ver 1.5 s/w from the CD and now want to install the NCQ program which uses spirit.ocx. However, I don't seem to have spirit.ocx on my system. Why did ther ver 1.5 s/w from lego not download the OCX to my hard disk? Will (...) (25 years ago, 20-Nov-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
