Exclamation Can I use other software instead of wind river

Can I use Dev C++ on my personal laptop and have the librarys for first or do I have to use Wind River. And where can I find other librarys instead of the one provided for Wind River.....

Thanks Team 94!!

Re: Can I use other software instead of wind river

All of the WPIlib stuff should be able to be moved to a different development environment, but as far as I know, Wind River is the only platform that has been set up to communicate and download to the cRIO. I don't think it would be worth the trouble to try to set this up on a different IDE (I know the guys over at WPI and FIRST worked a long while to get Wind River to work.)

My 2 cents.
Jacob

You can use anything to write the code, but as far as I know, you need the PPC cross-compiler included with WindRiver Workbench. The actual downloading is easy: the "Deploy" button in WRW just uses FTP to copy the compiled code to the robot.

If you were really determined, you could probably set up a makefile to compile your code using WindRiver's compiler (WRW might actually be doing this already), and then FTP the code to the robot.

Re: Can I use other software instead of wind river

Its totally fine, thats the beauty of IDEs, its independent, Im coding on DevC++ right now. Its just that I haven't set it up to compile it correctly yet.
