I've noticed an Unhandled event loop error in the console.

Thats the expanded error log, I'm unaware if leJOS has something similar to logcat.

Which Eclipse version?
In both Helios (3.6) and Indigo (3.7), the method JavaApplicationLaunchShortcut.getJavaElements(Object[] objects) is protected. That shouldn't be a problem, since LaunchNXTShortcut extends JavaApplicationLaunchShortcut

Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers - Galileo, I think its a variant of 3.5.1

I'd read some time ago that an older version of Eclipse was better to use with leJOS.

The current plug-in is for Eclipse 3.6 and above. I should probably mention that somewhere.
If you're not limited by other constraints (e.g. unavailable plug-in) you should update to Indigo (3.7).

Now running indigo as you suggested, seems to run fine so far.

However I've hit a snag. I think I've locked up my brick by running a test program I made.

Code: Select all

import lejos.nxt.*;

public class motorTest {

   /**
    * @param args
    */
   public static void main(String[] aArg) throws Exception
   
   {
      String m1 = "Motor A: ";
      String m2 = "Motor B: ";
      String p = "Port S1: ";
      
      TouchSensor touch = new TouchSensor(SensorPort.S1);
      
      for(;;) {
         LCD.clear();
         LCD.drawString(m1, 0, 1);
         LCD.drawInt(Motor.A.getTachoCount(), 9, 1);
         LCD.drawString(m2,0,2);
         LCD.drawInt(Motor.B.getTachoCount(), 9, 2);
         LCD.drawString(p,0,4);
         LCD.drawInt(SensorPort.S1.readRawValue(),9,4);
         Motor.A.setSpeed(200);
         Motor.B.setSpeed(200);
         if (touch.isPressed()) Motor.A.forward();Motor.B.forward();
         Thread.sleep(1000);
         if (touch.isPressed()) Motor.A.stop();Motor.B.stop();
         LCD.refresh();
         Thread.sleep(1000);
         
         
      }
   }

}

Using this code caused the Brick LCD to display the following:

Motor A:0
Motor B:0

Port S1: 1023


EDIT:

Ok, forget the code, I've figured out what was happening in that regard, just can't exit this program.

EDIT 2:

Now looking for a sufficiently sized paperclip. If you guys have any thoughts on preventing this occurring I'd appreciate it.

Edit 4:
Code updated

Hard Reset using paperclip, seems fine so far, but running that program again locks it up.

Unexpected behavior. When the program executes Motor B is moving already in short intervals. When the touch sensor is pressed, Motor A syncs movement with B.

Just press Enter+Escape (the buttons in orange and dark grey) to get back to the menu of the NXT, unless you see a data abort. Then we need to work out why you see a data abort.

Thanks, I bet that was something I missed in the manual.
