First release of rp6simul, a simulator for the RP6 and m32

[-Rick-]

Hmm .. do you have write access to the selected directory? Can you try another one? I noticed that on Windows sometimes your 'home' directory doesn't work, but for instance "My Documents" does.

Hi Rick,

installing worked perfekt on Arch Linux x86_64

Now i want to create a new project, but what the hell is this Plugin!? Is it the program running on the RP6 while simulation?

I downloadet "rp6simul-plugin", and as i understood i have to put the sourcecode of the program into the rp6-folder (I only want to simulate the Base, without M32).

But what next? In this folder i compiled the sourcecode and got a .hex-file, but i can't select it as plugin-file...

Ah, ok - now i know how to do it:

1. Copy your sourcecode into the rp6-folder (for example RP6Base_Move_05.c)
2. Rename it to "test.c"
3. In a terminal navigate to this folder and run "cmake CMakeLists.txt"
4. Now run "make all"
5. Open the simulator, File - New Projecet, select name and directory, then at "Plugin" chose the "rp6simul-plugin"-folder -> rp6 -> libplugin.so
6. Thada :-D when you click at the "map"-tab you can draw your map where RP6 drives

Now i have another question:
Is it possible to simulate the rp6 as fast as the pc can calculate? (like time lapse)

Okay, glad you found it out by yourself
The manual (which you can access via the menu or online also provides a nice guide using the GUI of cmake.

Actually, everything running outside any timer interrupts already runs at 'full speed'. Only the the timers run at 8 (or 16) MHz to provide realistic timing. If you would like to change the simulated AVR frequency you can take a look at the config.lua file in the src/lua/robot (and src/lua/m32) directories, but I don't expect that high values are really possible due the non-realtime operating systems we use

Great piece of work!

I added it to the list of the most interesting RP6 projects in RN-Wissen: http://www.rn-wissen.de/index.php/RP6_-_Programmierung

Ich habe den Thread mal als "wichtig" markiert, was ihn auf der ersten Seite ganz oben hält.

I marked this thread as "important", wich will make it stick to the first line on first page of this forum.

Many thanks to -Rick-! Great cinema!

It works well under Ubuntu Lucid Lynx and also under Windows XP. Now, the Robby is beside me all the time.
