Re: NI roboRIO
Yes, as Greg indicates, we're using two wires that we twisted together (they were our only source of yellow and green colored wires to match the coloring of the connectors ;-). So far, everything is...

Re: Sources for new WPILib available yet?
I'm looking at the code in the link and I see are terms like SEM_Q_PRIORITY and VX_FP_TASK that are very VxWorks specific. That, and the total lack of anything with "inux" in it, make me believe...

Re: Sources for new WPILib available yet?
If this were Windows or OS/X, then you'd be correct. Most of the libraries are closed. But, the WPILib is licensed under the BSD license and is therefore considered open source. Additionally, must...

Re: Sources for new WPILib available yet?
Unfortunately, all of this stuff appears to be for VxWorks and not for Linux. Many of the directories still have VxWorks build artifacts in them. So, it was interesting to take a look. However,...

Re: Sources for new WPILib available yet?
Actually, I'm not interested in backwards compatibility. As a guy who does embedded Linux for a living, I'm more interested in seeing the implementation to see what needs to be changed to make it...

Sources for new WPILib available yet?
Hi Gang,
Is there a copy of the 2015 WPILib available for download yet?
If not, does anyone know when the library sources will be available?
TIA,

Re: WindRiver gone for 2015?
It was disappointing to hear that WRS is dropping its support of FIRST. They do have a version of their development environment that runs on Linux that would work fine for the cRio.

Ours compressor is working fine with the (14,1) parameters. Make sure that your relay cable is wired correctly. We had a problem with the signal and ground wire being reversed.
