Is the documentation correct for the LinuxCNC Python Module in
regards to kinematics_type?
In the documentation for the LinuxCNC Python Interface there is
reference to:
kinematics_type
(returns integer) - identity=1, serial=2, parallel=3, custom=4 .
Yeah I agree that is not what the module does. Use the pseudo-enumerated
values you see in emcmodule.cc:
ENUM(KINEMATICS_IDENTITY);
ENUM(KINEMATICS_FORWARD_ONLY);
ENUM(KINEMATICS_INVERSE_ONLY);
ENUM(KINEMATICS_BOTH);
That being the case:
In commit [1]681cf92 I created a variable (trivkinstype) that I now think is
unnecessary.
Should I submit a patch that removes this variable?
Yes, I suspect it is more correct to get this value from the stat buffer
instead of from an inifile item. For one thing, the code that is
parsing the [KINS]KINEMATICS value will only work when the kinematics is
trivkins, not when it's something else like genserkins, right?
Jeff
doc patches welcome.
I will look into this.
