Cpp2

Introduction

	The second version of the application programming interface (API2) for Robotino(r) from Festo Didactic permits full access to Robotino's sensors and actors. Communication between the control program and Robotino is handled via TCP and UDP and is therefor fully network transparent. It does not matter whether the control program runs direcly on Robotino or on a remote system. API2 requires CF card 3.x. The Robotino Simulator currently does not support API2.

Using API2 with Visual Studio 2010 and cmake

• Install Visual Studio.
• Install cmake.
• If you want to build the examples with grafical user interface also install Qt4.
• Install the robotino_api2-i386 (to build 32bit applications) or robotino_api2-amd64 (to build 64bit applications) binary package.

After installation copy the folder holding the c++ examples to your user directory.
