Hi guys! I am writing a program with C++ for the BBB that has some serial ports and Ethernet communication, and i want to control the GPIO with it.
At this moment i am able to activate / read / write / and choose in or out for the digital GPIO, and also read the analog input. I am doing everything with the function "system" that runs a terminal command. I am doing this only cause all the tutorials i saw about GPIO are from the terminal, sending 'echo' and 'cat' to the GPIO's files in the /sys/class/gpio path's.. is this a reasonable way? i don't need the GPIO switching to be lightning fast. I saw that there are some libraries (like BlackLib for example) for controlling the GPIO but my question is: does they do exactly that? or do they reach the hardware from a better/faster way?? same goes to all other features like PWM, I2C etc... Thanks for your attention! Dror. -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BeagleBoard" group.
