Re: Windriver help?

Our team has been trying to follow the "Getting Started with C" document, and have been spinning our wheels for the past week in a fruitless effort to get the first example to load and run! We got through setting up Wind River(including updates), Imaging the cRio, and setting it up for C++. We got Wind River to connect, and the sample project based on the Simple Robot template appears to build, but when we try to get it to run, nothing. Tried a debug session, but couldn't locate the entry point "FRC_UserProgram_Startup LibraryInit".

At this point what we could really use is someone to hold our hand getting a first application to run, but haven't located anyone in our area (Ypsilanti MI.) who is using C++. Has anyone been able to get into the beta version of Virtual Advisor that Bill blogged about? Thought that might be a place to look, but cant find a working login.

Hate to think of going back to LabView, as that's been a nightmare the last couple years. The kids decided that C on the old IFI controller was much easier and wanted to try it on the cRio this year. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Steve
