There still seems to be some problems with Ultrasonic that I thought were worked out. The getDistances() method was providing multiple pings but I just tried it and it seems to return all -1 values. I'm not sure why it doesn't test anymore - possibly because of some changes made to the way strings were being handled in code (this was a Linux only bug we recently fixed which might have caused the Ultrasonic bug).
The getDistance() method looks to be 100% reliable but methods for returning multiple bytes like getProductId() are hit and miss. David Schlangen noted that in the DistanceTest sample if you uncomment NXTCommand.setVerify(true); it works 100% reliable instead of mostly reliable. I'll research this so for future releases there will be no need to use setVerify(true) to make this work. (setVerify makes all method calls a little slower) - Brian ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
