 | | Free IAR compiler for NXT firmware
|
|
If you haven't heard yet, IAR has released a free LEGO MINDSTORMS version of their compiler. It happens to be the same compiler that LEGO uses to build the NXT firmware so it makes it extraordinarily simple to build your own modified firmware (...)

Hi The 1.05 sources have been changed toward compatibility with a gcc-toolchain. To save rewriting, I take the liberty of pasting the contents of the readme file that you find in the root directory of the NXTGCC-0.0.10.zip file that can be (...)

| | Update to nxtgcc toolchain

I have updated the toolchain little bit: *the binsert utility reads binary file info directly from the standard firmware image (and you do not have to cut out the file sections manually) *the demo program executes, which is probably what some have (...)

Do a Google on "LEJOS OSEK". I believe this is a solution that has taken the base "OS" from the NXJ JAVA byte code interpreter as the basis for programming the NXT using GCC C++. I assume if you can use the GCC C/C++ tools with the NXT then you (...) (17 years ago, 8-Oct-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt.nxthacking)
