Re: How to make a "Custom VI" in Java?

You can take a look at the WPI site:
http://wpilib.screenstepslive.com/s/3120/m/7885

Another resource is the samples that are installed with NetBeans. In NetBeans, go to:
File -> New Project -> Samples -> FRC Java

There are three basic "styles" of programming a robot in Java: BasicRobot, IterativeRobot, and CommandBased. I will let you read about the differences elsewhere, but I thought you should know that there are three different paradigms.

Finally, if you do a search on ChiefDelphi, you will find other teams that link to tutorials on their sites.

Good luck!
