How do I use Robotdrive.h?

Salutations from Team 1086! I am a new programmer and I am trying to set up Cartesian Mecanum code for our robot. I am trying to set up halo drive. In other words, I want to have one joystick control the forward/backward movement and strafing, while another joystick controls rotation. My question is, how can I use the WPI Library's Robotdrive.h? What can I use from this?
Thanks!

Re: How do I use Robotdrive.h?

Let's say you have the leftDriveStick and the rightDriveStick. The right stick X and Y will be the forward/backward and strafe. The left stick X will be the rotate.

Code:

Joystick leftStick;

Joystick rightStick;

RobotDrive robotDrive;

 

float x = DEAD_BAND(rightStick.GetX());

float y = DEAD_BAND(rightStick.GetY());

float rot = DEAD_BAND(leftStick.GetX());

 

robotDrive.MecanumDrive_Cartesian(x, y, rot);
