Hello All I'm starting to design a commercial project which will use a number of networked BBB's as process controllers. While I"m an experienced DP guy, I"m an absolute newbie with the BBB hardware and software.
I'm at the point of choosing a language in which the applications will be written. The main application will be a no-user, stand-alone, repetitive data-processing application, so I want a language with the following characteristics : 1. high level 2. procedural 3. modular - high cohesion and low coupling 4. non-object oriented 5. strong array processing 6. runs under Linux 7. compilable My research tells me that Python is the most-used high-level language within the BBB community, but it fails ( at least somewhat ) on several of the above requirements. My research tells me that XBasic ( which satisfies all of the above ) doesn't seem to be much used within the BBB community. My Questions, therefore are : A - XBasic is said to run under Linux - does anyone know of a reason why it would not work on the BBB ? B - am I missing something profoundly wrong with XBasic which precludes its use ? thanks very much for taking your time to help me out richard -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BeagleBoard" group.
