Re: Does Anyone Understand NetworkTables2?

I honestly don't think it would be that difficult to modify the vanilla wpilib implementation to run on the rpi. My problem is just understanding what that implementation is really supposed to be doing. I don't understand how they intend users to interface with it at all.

For example, I would expect that to create a client, one would have to make an instance of the NetworkTableClient class. But that constructor takes an IOStreamFactory, a NetworkTableEntryTypeManager, and an NTThreadManager as arguments. I don't know what those even do, much less how to obtain them.
