modifying the java console (Read 15339 times)

admin YaBB Administrator Posts: 3676	Re: modifying the java console Reply #15 - 04/25/08 at 12:03pm Could you list the contents of your srv.config for the comm setup at the end of the file ? They should look something like this - comport=COM4 button.columns=6 wcs.server=localhost wcs.port=8888 wcs.pass=srv wcs.camID=1.jpeg

When I don't include the srv.config file in my directory I get the console to show up without the buttons on the console.

But, when I add the srv.config file to the workspace I get the following errors:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: ImageButton$ImageButtonMouseListener
at ImageButton.<init>(ImageButton.java:26)
at SRV1Console.getButtonPanel(SRV1Console.java:522)
at SRV1Console.init(SRV1Console.java:298)
at SRV1Console.main(SRV1Console.java:143)

So I guess that when it tries to read the srv.config file it tries to create the buttons but since from the start, I've been having issues with the ImageButton class files.

If I can get those files in a text format so that I can add them myself I think that might fix my problem.

comport=COM1
button.columns=6
wcs.server=localhost
wcs.port=8888
wcs.pass=srv
wcs.camID=1.jpeg
network.srv.host=192.168.0.15
network.srv.port=10001

So it's pretty similar.

I just can't get the buttons to load. And I haven't included my config file yet. I'm still just trying all the packaged files first just to see if I can get it to run, but no luck.

COM1 is probably the wrong port. I'm not near a Windows system at the moment, but you should be able to use the control panel to find out which comm port is the right one - if you can view the system setup and look at the hardware manager for USB devices. That could be causing the problem you describe.

Also, make certain when you unzipped SRV1Console.zip that all of the subdirectories were created (applet, buttons, archives and htdocs)

No the port is right, I just checked. I really do not think it is that.

From the errors I get, and the way I get the errors, I am pretty sure it is coming from those ImageClass files. I have all the files in my workspace, all the folders, etc.

I honestly think that if I can get the imageclass files

e.g:
ImageButton.class
ImageButton$ImageButtonDisableFilter.class
ImageButton$ImageButtonMouseListener.class
ImageButton$ImageButtonMouseMotionListener.class

if I can get them in a text format so that I can create them and include them in my workspace myself, that it might work.

Because, again, if you look at the errors that I got before, they all stem from the imagebutton classes.

Thanks

Added my own srv.config file to the workspace. Ran it. And I have no errors, and a running/working console with my own button configurations. Thanks!

Well now that I have that working, I am now trying to make a few modifications to the console.

I added a text field to the left of the camera display - where I will output temperature from a temp sensor mounted on the node. I might also display signal strength, etc. in the field as well.

What would be the easiest way to do this?

Thanks

However, from a system perspective, since you're modifying the robot firmware to support this, maybe the easiest approach would be to add the RSSI and temp information to the JPEG header, and then extract it on the java console side as you're processing the incoming video frame.
