Disappointed

[Team3266Spencer]

Last season I had a few frustrations with the Java library. I feel very limited by the NI vision resources for image processing which may or may not apply to Labview and C++. Most frustrating was the disallowing of the Smartdashboard at competition evidently due to some network hogging issues with the Smartdashboard. Plus I struggled with constant crashing even after updates that were supposed to resolve it. This is disappointing because some of Javas best features are created by the Smartdashboard. Whenever I want to do something with the Smartdashboard now I feel discouraged to because I doubt its usefulness at competition. Maybe it wasn't for other teams but for us it was a pool of problems. I'm looking for someone to tell me we just have something wrong because I would really like to use the Smartdashboard.
