3、 using make PREFIX=/usr/OPENR_SDK,OPENR Objects,True OO (very similar to Squeak/SmallTalk)Similar to a UNIX processCommunication through message passing.Object waits for message selector,data to arrive.Once a message arrives, objects call the method based on the selector specified in stub.cfg.Argume

4、nts to the method is the data in the messageWait for more messages.,Inter-object communication,Brief overviewSubjectObject that sends a messageObserverObject that receives the messageEvery observer has a message queue.Subject sends Observer a NotifyEvent. Observer replies with a ReadyEventASSERT_REA

DoDestroy()DE

9、LETE_ALL_SUBJECT_AND_OBSERVER This deletes all observer and subjects.,More Message Passing,Observer first sends all its subjects an AssertReady void SampleObserver:SendAssertReady() observerobsfunc1-AssertReady( ); When Subject receives AssertReady, it sends the data. void SampleSubject:Ready(const

12、f the directory where you have the source files. We will put the final output executables in this directory. Copy the directory OPEN-R from /usr/OPENR_SDK/MS into Output. Copy Makefile-parent from /usr/OPENR_SDK/MS to /Makefile Copy Makefile-child from /usr/OPENR_SDK/MS to /Makefile Edit both makefi

15、nd Debugging,Insert the memory stick in the laptop. At the prompt, typemount /sony Once the memory stick has been mounted, then copy the files from /MS/OPEN_R to /sonycp rf /MS/OPEN_R /sony un-mount the memory stick.umount /sony Put the memory stick in the dog and press the power button on the dog.D

16、EBUGGINGFor debugging information see chapter 5 in the programmers manual. The explanation in the chapter is very clear and extensive.,Flow of Development,Design your objects Decide on the data type for the inter-object communication Write the stub.cfg file Write the core class with the necessary me

This will break the joints. Use the robocup field or a similar carpet like surface. Do NOT use joint va

18、lues greater than the ones in the manual. The software does not impose a limit on the joint angles. Thus you can BREAK the joints by putting in arbitrary values. You will PAY for any broken part.
