RE: [U2] Extending U2 with gci/CALLC -- Factory Floor Automation - Serial Connectivity ?
We use the GCI all the time It works fine just so long as you remember to rebuild it when you update Universe/Unidata We use it to call C routines to read/write sockets, not really necessary since Universe 10 but its a sort of "if it works leave it alone philosophy" Bob -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Mats Carlid Sent: 12 April 2005 08:32 To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: Re: [U2] Extending U2 with gci/CALLC -- Factory Floor Automation - Serial Connectivity ?

We use gci and have done so for many year.

Many many moons ago I wrote some C code and interfaced it via CALLC on a Unidata installation to do socket communications to the NCIC and their E911 switch.
