I would like to get a picture how many people are (still) using RTAI and what their reasons are. With some new developments in the trajectory planner, some situations arise where the "schism" between the "realtime C possibly kernel module" world and the "userspace c++" world becomes more and more painful (like mirror-datastructures are needed on the C side that correspond to stuff in the C++ world). Given that popular hardware interfaces like ethercat and ethernet mesa cards don't work with kernel mode realtime, there are some ideas floating around to get rid of kernel mode stuff entirely (i.e. RTAI support) and to unify more C/C++ stuff So I wondered how man people are still using RTAI. Please speak up. best regards -- Robert Schöftner <[email protected]> _______________________________________________ Emc-developers mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-developers
