Use a Karel hash table to manage register sets on FANUC controllers

Hash Registers

This repository uses a hash table for managing register sets on FANUC robot controllers.

Creating a Karel environment hash from TP+ environment

In the robot.ini file define a file as your environment file

[WinOLPC_Util]
Env=C:\path\to\env.tpp

Then in the package.json file define the key/value below:

"tpp_compile_env" : {"name" : "<environment-hash-filename>", "clear" : true, "config" : "<karel-enum-filename>"}

where <environment-hash-filename> is the name of the karel file to store the hash of the evironment variables, and <karel-enum-filename> is the .klt file to store an enum macro list of registers for use when programming in karel.

If "clear" : true all of the register names and values will be cleared on the controller. This can be disabled by setting "clear" : false.

Build the package with rossum

rossum -w -o
ninja

This will output two files: <environment-hash-filename>.kl, and <karel-enum-filename>.kl. Move these two files into another repository, and compile the <environment-hash-filename>.kl file to .pc. Run this file on the controller to reset all of your registers.

[!NOTE] It is best to delete this file after use on the controller to conserve memory. Only load it on when wanting to reset register names/values.
