The Orocos development team is pleased to announce the fourth bug fix release of the Real-Time Toolkit v1.10, a C++ toolkit for building component based, real-time robotics and machine control applications.

Thanks to all our brave .0 testers, a first bug-fix release came around. Also some older outstanding bugs have been fixed. The short release notes follow below.

I have installed the newest version of TAO (1.5) on my system. when I compile rtt-orocos I get several errors concerning the Any_var type

=====================================================================================0
/home/eich/orocos/orocos-rtt-1.4.1/src/corba/AnyDataSource.hpp:16: error: ‘Any_var’ is not a member of ‘CORBA’
/home/eich/orocos/orocos-rtt-1.4.1/src/corba/AnyDataSource.hpp:16: error: ‘Any_var’ is not a member of ‘CORBA’
/home/eich/orocos/orocos-rtt-1.4.1/src/corba/AnyDataSource.hpp:16: error: template argument 1 is invalid

This is the first bug fix release of the Orocos Components Library v1.4
and only contains backwards compatible fixes.

The Orocos development team is pleased to announce the first bug-fix
release of the Real-Time Toolkit v1.4, a C++ toolkit for building
component based, real-time robotics and machine control applications.

The announcement on this page: http://www.orocos.org/releases/rtt140 still mentions that "The OCL is currently only available for standard Linux and LXRT." This is no longer the case, right?

Regards, Theo.

It seems that the file that can be downloaded from this link:
http://www.orocos.org/stable/examples/ocl/orocos-ocl-template-1.4-src.tar.bz2
is not a valid archive, as I cannot extract files using 7-zip nor with WinRAR.

Regards, Theo de Vries.

With quite some delay, but in good shape, the new RTT and OCL releases
have arrived. We decided to set the 'major' version numbers (1.4) of the RTT
and OCL equal, such that it is easier for users to match them.

Most importantly, Debian 'etch' packages are available thanks to a very
helpful user. We provide the RTT for standard Linux (-gnulinux) RTAI/LXRT
(-lxrt) and Xenomai (-xenomai). The OCL is currently only available for
standard Linux and LXRT. Also, not all OCL components are available yet,
particularly those depending on KDL. You can find them here:

deb http://svn.fmtc.be/debian etch main

Trying to build BFL on Windows using the instructions on Cmake, several problems arise, most importantly that I find no way to set the inputs for Cmake (v. 2.2 or later) stated in the installation notes for BFL. Do you have a working Visual C++ solution? or something else that would enable me to build for windows?

Regards,
Henrik
