Also I just put in the daemonise option.

Trip actually did generously hook me up with some svn space in the linuxice repo.
Eventually outputs:Code:svn co https://linuxice.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/linuxice/packages/vone
cd vone
mkdir build; cd build
cmake ..

FWIW, the Dbus signal is thus:
Where "loud" corresponds to loud/quiet, "strength" is an actual number between 1 and 8. the Leds, eight-segment display, and arrow leds are packed thus:Code:DBUS_TYPE_BOOLEAN, loud,
DBUS_TYPE_UINT32, strength,
DBUS_TYPE_UINT32, ledbits,
DBUS_TYPE_UINT32, eightsegmentbits,
DBUS_TYPE_UINT32, arrowbits,
DBUS_TYPE_STRING, &data
And "data" is the original seventeen bytes pulled from the device.Code:int eightsegmentbits = 0;
int i;
for(i=7;i>=0;i--) {
eightsegmentbits |= (1<<i) * (eightsegment[7-i]?1:0);
}
int ledbits = 0;
if(ledX) ledbits |= 0x08;
if(ledK) ledbits |= 0x04;
if(ledKA) ledbits |= 0x02;
if(ledLaser) ledbits |= 0x01;
int arrowbits = 0;
if(frontarrow) arrowbits |= 0x04;
if(sidearrow) arrowbits |= 0x02;
if(reararrow) arrowbits |= 0x01;
The documentation I was working off appears here: http://www.v1connect.com/Protocol.aspx.

Also, with this you can "simulate" by just pointing at a file containing a typical data stream using the --device option.

Looking good guys. Glad its working out and cant wait to see what becomes of this.
Any visual implementation yet for LinuxICE?
Not yet. We have some code in the linuxice code repo for a daemon, but it has problems with communicating with the v1. On/Off/Mute and the other write operations work, but it sometimes won't read from the v1 until you retry the app a few times. Gary was planning on reworking how it reads, but he's been busy and so have I. Once we do get it working, we'll have the UI built and push an installable to the LinuxICE repo.Quote:

Trip000:
To build it, you just need to build v1sim.cpp, and link it. [look at CMakeLists.txt]
One thing that will make a difference is that you need to check [in the build system] for the existence of the symbol ptsname_r, and if it exists, #define HAVE_PTSNAME_R.
If you don't #define HAVE_PTSNAME_R, then it falls back to using ptsname, which is the unsafe version. More importantly, ptsname actually crashes on one ubuntu install that I have here - so on your machine, if you don't do this, it'll probably actually crash on startup. Don't claim you haven't been warned.
I don't bother checking for the existence of posix_openpt, so this probably won't work on cygwin. If you want to work with cygwin [remember it still won't be implementing a COM port, though...], then copy-paste the relevant posix_openpt hoojery from here:
http://svn.icculus.org/obdgpslogger/...cc?view=markup
Note that to do that, you need to actually check whether the symbol is available in the library you're linking against, and not just whether it's available in the headers [grrrr cygwin grumble grrr]

Also, trip, add your name to the v1cs authors, and update the README. I can't even make v1cs build on this machine, so I've no idea what's up:

OK, so, little update:
I've rewritten all the serial handling in v1cs [now vone]. Should be much more bulletproof now, as well as handling things like reads being faster and slower than the device is spitting out,
[DEVELOPER HOO-HAA]
Note that if the device is spitting stuff out a *lot* faster than you're reading [shouldn't be the case, but it's possible], you'll get a warning that the buffer is being filled. One solution is to increase the buffer size [the build system lets you do that at build-time], but the default can hold about a second's worth of sentences or so, which is a lot. You probably want to increase the samplerate rather than the buffer.
[/DEVELOPER HOO-HAA]
v1sim has a couple new options to automatically attach either vone or screen to it automatically [makes testing massively simpler].
Trip's molested vone a whole bunch so it needs qt now, but should gracefully do a bunch of stuff with dbus. I haven't tried dbus much, personally, since that's trip's thing.
I don't actually have a valentine 1. If anyone has one laying around that they'd be willing to send me [or sell to me for a reasonable price], I'd greatly appreciate it. It would make this whole thing a universe easier [and I want a v1, but of course that's incidental :-)]
Have fun all,
Gary (-;
