Re: [Xenomai-help] difference Analogy API et rtdm API in xenomai

2012-04-01 Thread Minh GIANG
Hello,

thank for your advice, my other question is that i should use the POSIX API
instead of Native API in Xenomai for my application because it will be more
portable, but it seems easier with Native API for development,  i'm wrong?
In conclusion, it will be better that i develop my project (data acquision
for example) with Analogy and POSIX API.

 The RTDM API is an API allowing to implement drivers for xenomai using
 the usual POSIX open/close/ioctl/etc... API.

 Analogy is a driver implemented using the RTDM API. So, you can access
 it using either the usual POSIX open/close/ioctl/etc... API, or using
 the analogy library provided.

 So, yes, you can use the two APIs, but using the analogy library is
 probably simpler.

The two APIs provide equivalent services, which one you prefer is
largely a matter of taste.
