Crio Not taking code

[ElliotCourant]

I am the one who was dealing with it the most.
I wrote the code just to do tank drive with two motors and jaguars, i deployed the code and only one joystick is working and all the robot will do is move forward and backward. then I went back into the code and deleted all of the code related to movement so that regardless of what I do the robot should not move. I deployed the code and it did the same thing again.

I have re-imaged the crio at least 8 times today and each time i get the same result regardless of the code that i deploy to the robot.

Your description suggests that you're not downloading the code you think you are. Make sure you're pointing the deployment process to the same place you're putting the compiled program.

I am working with elliot and we have check our .out file. i have a theroy that one of the modules is hold to a program. Is that possible?

Okay but how would we make sure that the code from windriver is deploying to the right ip address, because whenever i reimage it my laptop says that there is no code in the driver station, but then when i deploy the code and reboot it says that there is code there. But the robot is not taking the code?

What Alan meant was that one easy mistake to make is thinking you're downloading your new .out file whenever you push the Deploy button.
There are different .out files from each project.


That's only true if you remembered to select the newest one in:

Window->Preferences

FIRST Downloader Preferences

and check to see that the .out file selected is the latest one AND the directory is the right one.

I always double-check by looking at the .out file creation date in Windows Explorer to make sure it is the one being changed whenever you compile.

It turned out that that was the problem but now we are having a different problem. It worked but then this happened. We deploy the code and it behaves like it transferred the file, but then when we go to the driver station and we reboot it it says that there is no code. we tried changing Crios and that didn't help. I also used ftp to browse the robot and I could not find the output file from windriver.
