[Tinyos-help] Contribution to TinyOS - MSPSim build extra

2011-03-09 Thread David Lee
Hey all,

I'm using TinyOS for a university project, and specifically am working with
the TelosB motes. I'm also using the YETI plugin for Eclipse, so running any
sort of simulation was a bit of a pain. In order to be able to simulate my
stuff via the standard build system, I made a custom .extra file for the
build system. The changeset consists of the following things:


   1. A new file mspsim.extras that lives in the /support/make/msp folder
   2. A new folder, /tools/mspsim that contains mspsim.jar and its lib
   folder
   3. A utility script that I wrote called open-terminal, that handles
   opening a terminal for the simulator (the eclipse one tends not to work
   reliably) regardless of platform.

Once it's properly installed, enabling the mspsim extra automatically
builds the project and then starts the simulator.

Currently, since I don't believe MSPSim is part of TinyOS, my build extra
doesn't download or compile that dependency.

I'm unsure of what the next step is, though. Apparently, it isn't the
tinyos-devel mailing list, because they rejected this. Should I just attach
the files to a followup?

Thanks for your input
