I am unable to create a smart dashboard extension using the network tables. I have created and successfully used an image tracking program as an extension. This is not going to be beneficial, however, should I fail to send data.
I can put/get numbers on the robot side (C++) and have proven such with the table viewer app. As I said, however, an extension made as specified in the above documentation on a fully updated version of Netbeans; built and tried on several computers, just to be sure, will not function properly.
Is there something I am missing or some further documentation. Can anyone provide example code? As an alternative, is there a way to put numbers to the smart dashboard's network table with an extension on the smart dashboard (because there is are CPP get functions for the smart dashboard in robot code)?
