Team 1114 C++ Example Code

[Pat Fairbank]

Over the course of the beta test, Team 1114 has been retrofitting the 2007 robot, Simbot Prime, with the new control system. Here is the C++ code we've developed for teleoperated control of the robot. It includes an example of an IterativeRobot with one-joystick drive and simple arm control, as well as some convenience classes we wrote for double solenoids and the Logitech Dual Action Gamepad.

We're currently working on programming an autonomous mode which can score a tube on the rack guided by the green light; the code'll be released in a week or two when we're done.

Thank you for posting the code. I have one question - why are you using a class with static members instead of a namespace for your SimLib?

I look forward to the autonomous code.

Thanks,
Sam

Knowing the individual responsible for that part of the code, it's probably because that's how it would be done in Java (although that class should really have a private constructor).

Here is the final version of the code, including an autonomous mode that tracks the green light and scores a tube on a spider leg.
