hi,
is there a BrickOS IDE quite like Bricxcc for Windows (XP)?
(editor, compiler. linker, integrated context-sensitive help: all-in-1, dispensing with command-line/console cmds ?)
(possibly no dinosaur like Eclipse.... )

If you mean brickOS for the RCX then BricxCC is the IDE for brickOS. You can install brickOS via my installers:

This includes a pre-built H8 cross compiler and brickOS with both C/C++ and Pascal support.

hmm - i think I was confusing something.
I meant a OS for the NXT with a ANSI C compiler which generates ARM machine code - is this not brickOS? maybe NXOS? I can't remember the correct name of this OS...

I guess you mean nxtOSEK or NxOS. As far as I know there is not an IDE exactly like BricxCC that is not Eclipse for Windows. And as far as I know even with Eclipse there is not the same level of context-sensitive help and debugging tools available for nxtOSEK or NxOS like you have with BricxCC.

I thought you might be switching back to the RCX for your robotics projects.

John Hansen

yes, NxOS, that's it what I meant.

haha, good joke

(I need 10³ of the calculation speed of NXC, on the NXT, not 10-3 )

what about BCC to include NxOS as a targeting platform?
