---+ Task:  Loading Generated C Programs onto TexBot

Owner:  Emily Fortuna

---++ Goal
Currently, RIDL generates C programs that can in principle be compiled and uploaded to the Lego Mindostorm.  The goal of this task is to make sure that this task is done automatically and correctly.

---++ Administrivia
   1. Getting an account on the CS network (talking to BJ, Lena, or Darnell.  There'll be a form for me to sign)
   1. Getting an account on (or "register for") the wiki.
   1. Make a CVS directory for your work (after getting account on CS).

---++ Work Plan
   1. Read [[http://pub.ridl.org/WebHome/cross-compiler.tex Michael Dyrby's documentation]] on using the cross-compiler.  It will be useful to put this online as a pdf document, in addition to keeping the tex source around.
   1. Downloading [[http://www.ridl.org/ RIDL]] and getting it to generate some example C programs.
   1. Getting some such C programs to download onto the Lego Mindstorm (by hand)
   1. Doing the above automatically.

---++ Done !!
   1. [[%ATTACHURL%/cross-compiler.pdf][Michael Dyrby's documentation]] as a pdf.
   1. Built the H8300 gcc cross compiler from scratch.
   1. Edited and posted report on [[http://www.hope.cs.rice.edu/twiki/bin/view/Internal/LittleRapsterMindstormSetup][Building the H8300 gcc cross compiler from scratch on Linux]]
   1. Edited and posted [[http://www.hope.cs.rice.edu/twiki/bin/view/Internal/LittleRapsterRobotTasks][RCX Robot tasks report]]
   1. [[https://resource-aware.org/twiki/bin/view/Texbot/EmilyFortunaTexBotSemesterReportSpring2006][Semester Report]]

---++ The Next Step
   1. Learning more about C.
   1. Writing C programs for the compiler and such.
