WindRiver Plug-in for Command Based C++

[kbocheltree]

We are new to using C++ on the robot this year (only our second year in FIRST Robotics) and we wanted to try the Command Based C++ approach. When we went to add the C++ Command Based Plugin to WindRiver, no plugin was added and it did not appear on the drop down menu. Is the command based plugin still at the same location? Anyone else have issues with getting it installed in the WindRiver environment?

We would like to look at it before the 2013 season starts.

Any other teams out there using the Command based approach? Comments?

Thanks!

Just curious, is there a difference between 'command based' C++ and 'standard' C++? Is there such a thing as non-command based C++?

Anyway, we have C++ running on our robot. I think something similar happened with us; I can't recall completely since it was so long ago. I downloaded windriver and installed all the updates--but the updates weren't the correct version. (And we had a host of other problems with other C++ related things, such as the imaging tool not working on our crio--all which are fixed), but my advice would be to double check that you have the latest (2012) versions of everything. FRC2012UtilitiesUpdate2.0.zip would help (a simple google search should reveal the download link).

EDIT: Disregard everything I said. I don't want to delete this post, but to the people who come across this thread on Google and want to know about command based C++, here you go: http://firstforge.wpi.edu/sf/go/doc1297?nav=1

"Command-based" c++ is a library provided by First/WPI as an alternative style of programming the robot. It rests around making "Subsystems" that then do "Commands".

"Command-based" is a software architecture, not a language.

Hi,
We are, GreenBlitz 4590, using the C++ Command-Based Robot.
You can download the plugin through the windriver. You need first to switch it to Anvanced development and then click on the "Help" tab.
Basically it is all written here: http://firstforge.wpi.edu/sf/docman/...tation/doc1297

We've also uploaded some tutorials about the command-based:

Hope I helped!
