C++\Java Plugin Changelog

Changelog for the C++\Java Eclipse Plugins

2/11/2016 - Update 4 (0.1.0.201602112135)

WPILib C++ and Java

  • Breaking: MotorController interface had the StopMotor() method added. In most cases, any customs classes which inherit\implement the interface must add this method. In most cases, you should call StopMotor on the underlying CAN or PWM motor controller(s).
  • Fixed an issue where CAN connected motors that are stopped might not start again without adding code to explicitly re-enable them
  • Added a config routine to allow enabling/disabling of limit switch and soft limits on CANTalon speed controllers
  • Rate limit duplicated error messages to prevent them from overloading the buffer limits and blocking the program
  • Fixed CAN Talon JNI references for the Java bindings
  • PDP classes will now support any PDP device address
  • Better check for version and year on plugins
  • Modified example programs to use the newer AnalogGyro class
