What was the hardest to program this year in Java?

So far we're overriding three of WPI's classes with our own versions: PWM, because someone forgot to cast two integers to doubles before dividing them; Encoder, because someone divided by 0.25 when they should have divided by four; and DriverStation, because the scaling on the joystick axes is wrong (it goes from -1.0 to 0.9 rather than -1.0 to 1.0 due to the use of two's complement).

Not that I'm complaining; when volunteers write 20,000 lines of code there are bound to be a few errors. In fact, I'm glad WPILib isn't perfect, because then my programming team would have nothing to do after week one.

Have you reported all the bugs you found so that the library can be improved for everyone? Even better would be patches that implement the fixes.

Visit http://firstforge.wpi.edu/sf/tracker...wpilib/tracker to report bugs!
