Examples missing

[unobtainium-42]

It's been a year since I last used this program. I installed windriver on my new laptop but I think something went wrong. The FRC downloader is there but the example projects are nowhere to be found.

I have some old projects which opened sucessfully but I don't have a robot available right now. The project resulted in this build error:

C:\WindRiver\vxworks-6.3\host\x86-win32\bin\make.exe: *** No rule to make target `G:/FRC/2009/Workspace/SimpleTemplate/MyRobot.cpp', needed by `SimpleTemplate_partialImage/Debug/Objects/SimpleTemplate/MyRobot.o'.  Stop.
Build Failed in Project 'SimpleTemplate' (Process Exit Value was 2):   2010-01-10 09:32:56   (Elapsed Time: 00:00)

I'm worried that the installer may have neglected to include the stuff necessary for programming the cRIO. How can I fix this problem?

You could try uninstalling and reinstalling windriver. I haven't run the installer yet (We don't get our hands on any equipment until Monday), but I extracted all the files within the updater and found the examples under vxworks/target/src.

I'm not 100% sure what the error means, but I think it is saying the prebuilt binaries aren't there. Try looking around the directories listed in the error

How do you uninstall wind river?

Forget about the reinstall thing. I didn't read your post closely enough and thought you were upgrading an old one.

What did you use to install Windriver? Most likely you have an old version. download the update and try that. It should erase all FRC libraries and re-load them with the latest version. Can't hurt to try

Also I heard from one of the beta teams that the new code is not 100% compatible with the old code. Old stuff might not build correctly

OK I should have read the instructions the examples are under VxWorks downloadable kernel module sample project.
