Hallo all,
I'm pleased to announce that after having done some refactoring in the
src/comm/lib(j)irctrcx folders, leJOS distributions for both Windows and
Linux can now be built from one single source (just switching one single
property in the build.properties file) and are passing the existing
integration tests.
These versions (labelled leJOS 3.0.0 M3), alongside with the
documentation, are (for the time being) available at
http://www.matthias-paul-scholz.homepage.t-online.de/lejos/index.html
Hence, I welcome everybody who it may concern to download them and try
them out - all the good things that have been added to leJOS since the
last official release 2.1.0 (more than three years ago!) should be in it.
I'd be rather grateful for any feedback.
Regards,
Matthias
ps. Next steps would be a MacOSX version, I presume.
pps. Could everybody who has added something to the code base since
2.1.0 that he wants to be seen merged into the leJOS 3 release notes
provide me with some according statements, please?

Hi,
After all, when abandoning the lib(j)irctrx2 folders (that appear to
work presently for windows only), I'm not sure what we loose doing so
- for aught I know, Markus worked in some substantial enhancements in
terms of reliability there, compared to the lib(j)irctrcx versions(?).
I improved the reliability and the speed of the transfer. I ran into
some troubles porting it to linux, because the flush and purge
operations are not implemented on linux. I didn't even start
development on the MacOS version because I do not have any access to a
mac.
Well, we could certainly do with improvements in regard to the transfer
reliability and speed in leJOS 3.0.
However, for the sake of obtaining a three platforms release from one
single code base, it might be a good minmax strategy to leave the
lib(j)irctrcx2 stuff out and focus on getting lib(j)irctrcx (re)working
on Windows running.
In a hypothetical next steps we could then merge the lib(j)irctrcx2
improvements with lib(j)irctrcx (on which way ever this could be done).
Is that commonly agreed?
If so, is there anybody who is desperate to tackle this task? :-)
If not - reasonable alternatives?
Regards,
Matthias
