As a C++ absolute beginner I'm trying to compile your testssc.c file with
g++ testssc.c -o testssc
(under freebsd 5.4, gcc version 3.4.2)
But...
I only get:
SerialPort.C: In function `int main(int, char*)':
SerialPort.C:62: error: invalid conversion from `unsigned char*' to `char*'
SerialPort.C:62: error: initializing argument 1 of `int snprintf(char*,=20
size_t, const char*, ...)'
SerialPort.C:66: error: `err' undeclared (first use this function)
SerialPort.C:66: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once f=
or=20
each function it appears in.)
SerialPort.C:69:3: warning: no newline at end of file
Could you please help to straighten things up?
Vittorio

/* Name: testssc.c
* compile with: gcc testssc.c -o testssc
*
* Your serial cable should be plugged into com port 1.
* You only need the pin 3 and pin 5 (DB9) plugged into the controller.
* The servo should be plugged into the first servo channel/port.
* This test program when run will move the servo from midrange,
* to position 01. This is for demonstrational use only.
* Tested with FreeBSD 5.4

Cheers,

PS. I have three books on programming in C winging their way to Australia.
I have a lot to learn :-)
