Hi, im new to this, but I think I followed your start up guide correctly.
I found a code on this website http://www.phptr.com/articles/article.asp?p=26439&seqNum=3&rl=1 Which enables you to display a map...
I copied the code, and im progressivly getting through it... as I've had no end of errors. Wondering if someone could have a look at my few problems left...
Note that im currently not using a tower or an rcx...
This code collects the mapping data
import josx.platform.rcx.*;
import josx.rcxcomm.*;
import josx.robotics.*;
import java.io.*;
class DataSender implements SensorListener
{
Navigator robot;
static final byte ARRAY_SIZE = 10;
public short [] xCoords;
public short [] yCoords;
byte count = 0;
public DataSender(Navigator robot)
{
this.robot = robot;
xCoords = new short [ARRAY_SIZE];
yCoords = new short [ARRAY_SIZE];
Sensor.S2.addSensorListener(this);
}
public static void main(String [] args) throws IOException
{
TimingNavigator robot = new TimingNavigator(Motor.C,Motor.A, 4.475f, 1.61f);
robot.forward();
DataSender ds = new DataSender(robot);
try
{
Button.RUN.waitForPressAndRelease();
robot.stop();
Button.VIEW.waitForPressAndRelease();
}
catch(InterruptedException ie){}
// Send data:
RCXDataPort port = new RCXDataPort(); - Cannot resolve symbol
DataOutputStream out = new DataOutputStream(port.getOutputStream());
out.writeShort(0);
out.writeShort(0);
for(byte i=0;i<ARRAY_SIZE;++i) {
out.writeShort(ds.xCoords[i]);
out.writeShort(ds.yCoords[i]);
}
out.flush();
}
/** Records the x, y position when bumper hits an object.*/
public void stateChanged(Sensor bumper, int oldValue, int newValue) {
{
if (bumper.readBooleanValue() == true) {
robot.stop();
if (count < ARRAY_SIZE) {
xCoords[count] = (short) robot.getX();
yCoords[count] = (short) robot.getY();
++count;
}
robot.travel( -20);
robot.rotate( (float) (Math.random() * 180));
robot.forward();
}
}
}
}
I think that error has something to do with no being able to find the class??
Displays Map

public class MapData() extends Canvas - expects {

});
mainFrame.setSize(400, 300);
mainFrame.add(new MapData());
mainFrame.setVisible(true);
}
public void paint(Graphics g)
{
int height = this.getSize().height;
int width = this.getSize().width;
g.setColor(Color.orange);
g.drawLine(width/2,0,width/2, height);
g.drawLine(0,height/2, width, height/2);
g.setColor(Color.black);
for(int i=0;i<ARRAY_SIZE-1;++i)
{
g.drawLine(xCoords[i] + width/2, yCoords[i] + height/2,
xCoords[i+1] + width/2, yCoords[i + 1]+height/2);
}
}
} - Expected {
This code is a bit funny... if i remove the () from the bold line after MapData, it brings errors to
import java.io.*;
import pc.irtower.comm.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
public class MapData extends Canvas
{
int ARRAY_SIZE = 10;
short [] xCoords;
short [] yCoords;
public MapData() {
xCoords = new short[ARRAY_SIZE];
yCoords = new short[ARRAY_SIZE];
PCDataPort port = null;
try {
port = new PCDataPort("COM2");
but even more weird, is that lejosc compile on command gives 18 errors... and all are connot resolve symbol...
lol, I know this a bit messy... but Im sure someone would love to sort this out for me =D
Thanks for looking,
