January, 2013
- Fixed bugs in PCM sound stream C API and added new
functions for PCM sound playback
- Added wavelooptest C sample (see samples_c\wavelooptest)
Special thanks to Eiji Sato who developed the API and the
sample originally for ET ROBOCON 2012(http://www.etrobo.jp/2012/)
- Improved stability of NXT BIOS
Special thanks to Koji Shimizu
- Support OSEK COM (see samples_c\comtest or
samples_c++\OsekCom)
Note that OSEK COM requires sg.exe in TOPPERS ATK1 (http://www.toppers.jp/atk1-download.html)
Special thanks to Professor Naohiko Shimizu (http://www.ip-arch.jp/)
- Fixed a bug in ecrobot.mak and ecrobot++.mak
Special thanks to Dariusz Antoniuk

- Added ecrobot_exec_NXT_BIOS C/C++ API to be able to
execute NXT BIOS from application automatically
(See samples_c\executeNXTBIOS, samples_c++\cpp\ExecNXTBIOS
samples)
Note that the new C/C++ API works only when NXT BIOS is
used. Otherwise it does nothing
Note that the new C/C++ API requires NXT BIOS 1.04 or
later
- Updated NXT BIOS to 1.04
- Uploaded application is executed after program
upload without turn off/on the NXT
- Improved robustness of program upload (I hope)
- Program upload progress bar is replaced with
simple "Uploading..." message to reduce IRQ load for LCD
updates
Note that the new C/C++ API and the update of NXT BIOS
improve usability of NXT BIOS and user can design prefered
application upload sequence

2011
- Support HiTechnic DC Motor Controller for TETRIX in C
API (See samples_c\tetrix)
Special thanks to Loic Cuvillon to develop the C API and
the C sample
- Added installation instructions for Mac OS X (Lion)
Special thanks to Dmitry Prokhorov
- Updated installation instructions for Linux (Ubuntu
11.10)
Special thanks to Lauro Ojeda
- Added samples_c\mathtest sample
- Modified LFLAG in tool_gcc.mak to link ANSI-C math
library properly
Special thaks to Paul Besson to report the bug
- Added NO_RUN_ENTER_STOP_EXIT compile switch macro to
enable to suppress initial splash screen and disable
RUN/ENTER/STOP/EXIT operations assignment to the NXT
buttons
(See samples_c\noRunEnterStopExit,
samples_c\noRunEnterStopExitAndBluetooth and
samples_c++\cpp\Nxt2 samples)
- Added ecrobot_restart_NXT and ecrobot_shutdown_NXT C API
to be able to re-start/shutdown NXT
- Added ecrobot_get_button_state C API and
BTN_ORANGE_RECT/BTN_LEFT/BTN_RIGHT/BTN_GRAY_RECT macros to
be able to retrieve status of the buttons on the NXT
- Added the above new C API equivalent properties to
ecrobot::Nxt C++ class
Note that the above new features allows users to design
user orignal interface with the NXT LCD and buttons
instead of nxtOSEK default initial display and
RUN/ENTER/STOP/EXIT buttons assignment. It also reduces
ROM size about 2 Kbytes.

- Improved and fixed bugs in Bluetooth C/C++ API
1. Removed BT_BUF_SIZE macro in C API and
MAX_BT_DATA_LENGTH in C++ API
2. Corrected maximum size of Rx data packet buffer to be
126 (formerely, 254 bytes) for ecrobot_read_bt_packet and
related C++ API
3. Fixed bugs in ecrobot_get_device_address,
ecrobot_get_device_name and related C++ API
4. [RECOMMENDED TO USE] Added new C/C++ API to send/read
data without data frame restrictions. Note that the new
C/C++ send/read API are faster and it allows user to fully
design data frame structure (extra 2 bytes can be used in
user application)
5. Added C/C++ API to get signal strength (RSSI)
6. Added Bluetooth C/C++ samples
(samples_c\btinfo, samples_c\btecho,
samples_c++\cpp\BluetoothInformation,
samples_c++\cpp\BluetoothEcho)
Special thanks to Yamaguchi-san
- Changed the scope range of ecrobot\c\colorsensor.h from
global to internal use only
Special thanks to Yamaguchi-san
- Fixed a bug in ecrobot_sound_wav C API and Speaker
C++ API
(enable to play WAV files that don't contain 2 byte dummy
zeros in the fmt block)
Special thanks to Eric Matsui-san

some reason
(e.g. USB
disconnection, data corruption), keep
pushing EXIT button on the NXT longer
than one second to shut down the
NXT.
- Fixed a bug in ECRobot C++ API(GyroSensor.setOffset)
- Fixed a bug in ecrobot_device_initialize when
application program is re-started |
