Programming Limit Switch

I have no idea how to program a limit switch. If anyone could give me an example or link on how to program one it would be appreciated.

What are you doing with it?

Here's the basic code:

Code:

DigitalInput limitSwitch;



    public RandomSubsystem() {

        

        limitSwitch = new DigitalInput(1);     //1 = the DIO port of the sensor

    }



   public boolean getLimitSwitch() {

        return limitSwitch.get();

    }



   public void doSomething() {

        if(getLimitSwitch() == false) {

             doSomething();

        }

    }

Then call doSomething() from a command and set the isFinished() method to trigger when getLimitSwitch() returns true.

FWIW, if you plug it directly into a Jag you don't need to program it.
