SendableChooser::InitSendable() is written such that it saves the table
being used in an instance variable. This doesn't work if the chooser is
added to both LiveWindow and SmartDashboard. Normally it is not added to
LiveWindow because the name is empty, but if setName() is called this could
still happen. Note adding the same SendableChooser to SmartDashboard with
two different names is also not currently supported, for the same reason.
The correct solution will be to remove the instance variable, but this is
too high risk to implement mid-season, so instead just remove from LiveWindow.
Reset() is the only function without a null check around it. We call the function on startup, which means if it is unplugged the robot crashes.
Also added an accessor for checking if it is connected, as some teams (us) would like to handle the case where it was not connected on startup.
This normalizes within -1..1 to avoid clipping and maintain the ratio between
wheel speeds, since that ratio determines the center of rotation.
Fixes#923.
* Fix SmartDashboard PutData to hook setters.
Also update all PutData values in main periodic loop (same as LiveWindow).
* Improve SmartDashboard.putData() repeat call handling.
setErrorData symbol was missing. However, its been deprecated at the
netcomm level for years, and wasn't exposed in wpilibj. And it would
have been crashing since forever, so safe to remove.
LiveWindow.updateValues() is now called from IterativeRobotBase on every
loop iteration. Telemetry for all WPILib classes is enabled by default;
it can be disabled for specific classes using LiveWindow.disableTelemetry(),
or all telemetry can be disabled using LiveWindow.disableAllTelemetry().
This necessitated changing the hook methodology into other classes to
be more property-based rather than each class providing multiple functions.
This had the benefit of reducing boilerplate and increasing consistency.
- Remove NamedSendable, add name to Sendable.
- Provide SendableBase abstract class.
- Deprecate LiveWindow addSensor/addActuator interfaces.
- Add LiveWindow support to drive classes.
- Add addChild() helper functions to Subsystem.
- Fix inheritance hierarchy. Now only sensors inherit from SensorBase.
Other devices inherit from some combination of SendableBase, ErrorBase, or
nothing.
To make this work in PIDController.java, the use of synchronized had to be
replaced with ReentrantLock and try-catch blocks. The locking in
PIDController.java was made equivalent to PIDController.cpp and some existing
race conditions in PIDController.java were fixed in the process.
Fixes#30.
m_pidInput and m_pidOutput are considered constant after their construction.
Setting the input range, output range, tolerance, or continuous mode locks the
controller. m_error and m_result are held in temp variables and set at the end
of the calculation.
Getters of P, I, D, F, m_error, m_setpoint, m_result, and m_enabled lock the
critical section. P, I, D, F, and m_setpoint are retrieved at the beginning of
Calculate().
Fixes#40.
