.. as a specific example, hostmot2.h defines hostmot2_t. Between 2.7
and master, we added the config.pktuarts and pktuart fields to it. This
is technically API compatible, since the fields were only added; the
meaning of existing fields is not changed. However, it is ABI
incompatible since t

Another important consideration is whether the hostmot2 API is stable
enough that we want to make it a part of the public API of LinuxCNC.
That means things like not deliberately making breaking API changes
without notice for a whole stable release cycle; so e.g., if we do this
in 2.8, then wa

Is there any need to compile the hm2 drivers with halcompile?
halcompile is intended for users to compile custom HAL components with, I
don't think that the intention was for it to compile arbitrary lumps of
LinuxCNC.

real thanks ... in the end from my point of view, it all depends on the
support I can get from vxworks staff. I am alone and I do many things too,
It seems that vxworks has good support, so you can ask them the right
tricks to do things. I can make an attempt, if it will work I'll punch a
shot, if
Hi,
The halcompile feature to compile without source tree (WOST) seems to be
nonfunctional for the hm2 driver(s). This is, at least in part, because
the headers required are not copied to the ../include path (from the
Makefile). There are also local include references that may not hold
true when u
