 Why silence the rude ones and naysayers when you could have the students learn to deal with them? - JackG [more] |

Re: What programming tool does your team use?
Does anyone know if the source to WPILib is available? We use MPLab now because we can't figure out how to teach device driver development using WPILib or EasyC. To us the beauty of KW's software is you can pretty much just use it if you need a quick solution but because you have the source you can also learn how the microcontroller works and develop your own device driver and interrupt code. The FRC robotics program is usually the first opportunity our software developers have to really understand something about embedded development and understanding something about how to read a data sheet and configure the mc registers. This gives them the confidence to develop additional functionality on the FRC controller as well as use other co-processors such as the nice Atmel microcontrollers.
