No, it's not that straightforward for communicating with real-time controllers. There's a whole deployment framework designed to communicate with, transfer files to, configure, and manipulate real-time controllers. And, unfortunately, we did not port the new deployment framework to the Mac when we overhauled the framework several releases back - there were business reasons for us not doing so. The same business reasons that make it so that LabVIEW does not support the Mac any more unless you have an Intel Mac (as of LabVIEW 8.5).

To my knowledge LabVIEW on Linux is not supported for targeting the cRIO either.

As for the WindRiver tools, I haven't seen anything but a Windows installer.

Dang, you are correct. I just checked, and the last time we had a Linux system as a deployable host was also the last time we had a Mac system as a deployable host, which was several versions back.

It looks as if you cannot deploy software to a cRIO unless you're running Windows - only Windows can serve as the RT Host.

Exactly which versions of Windows does it work with?

(And is NI planning on porting the deployment functionality to Mac by 2010?)

LabVIEW will work on Windows XP and Windows Vista. You should be able to use either of these operating systems in a virtual machine on a Mac or with Bootcamp.

I am not aware of plans to port native support for deployment to the Mac by 2010.

I'm afraid that we are no longer able to provide this support. With the inclusion of the Driver Station PC in the FRC 2010 season, National Instruments' official policy is to no longer support Linux or Mac development environments for FRC. Since your Driver Station PC runs Windows XP, all teams now have a Windows development system for programming. I understand that the Driver Station PC may not be an ideal environment for programming your robot, but we are no longer able to support FRC teams running Linux or Mac.
