[Emc-users] Software question
Could someone explain or point me to documentation that explains the following: 1.What does the motion controller do? Is is part of HAL? How is it built? I see that the file motion.c has a 'main' function but the Makefile does not link it, only compiles it to an object file. How is this object file used? 2. It's unclear to me if there is one or more shared memory 'areas'. I had originally understood that only one shared memory area existed that all user space and kernel space programs communicated through. 3. Why use NML? Why not use just shared memory? Is NML an attempt at standardizing communication between software entities, i.e. user-kernel, user-user, kernel-kernel?

[Emc-users] info on emcsvr
As I reviewed the EMC2 source I came across 'emcsrv'. I could not find the source code for this server, at least not with this name or any detailed information about what it does. Does any one know? -Rich -- ___ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
[Emc-users] EMC1 ?
Hi Guys, I'd like to know where I can get the public domain version of EMC? Is it available on a cvs server like cvs.linuxcnc.org? If so, please provide name of branch/tag etc. Thanks and Happy New Year! -Rich -- ___ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
[Emc-users] Building EMC2 2.2.8
Hello, I'm trying to build the latest EMC2 release, 2.2.8 on a Live-CD install (Ubuntu 8.0). I've already installed the following missing packages: dpgk-dev libc6-dev tcl tcllib python2.5-dev mesa-common-dev libglu-dev gcc g++ gettext After a few minutes of building, the Makefile stops with this error: make: Entering directory `' none -k_ -o po/rs274_err.pot emc/task/emctaskmain.cc emc/rs274ngc/rs274ngc_errors.cc emc/rs274ngc/interp_arc.cc touch po/rs274_err.pot /bin/sh: none: not found make: *** [po/rs274_err.pot] Error 127 I'd appreciate any help in resolving this. Let me know if you need more info, thanks! BTW: I've configured to build in place with ./configure --enable-run-in-place -Rich -- ___ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
