Some stuff you may want to know before downloading the Mavros distribution

1. What contains the Mavros distribution?

The following directories (total size around 9MB for the source version):

MAVCOD
Source files of the mavcod parser.
MAVROS
Source files of the mavros compiler.
ASN1
Librairy needed to link your programs using marshalling functions generated by mavros.
DOC_MAVROS
Contains the man pages.


2. How do I get help?

MANPATH=$HOME/mavros/mavrossave/DOC_MAVROS man mavros
MANPATH=$HOME/mavros/mavrossave/DOC_MAVROS man mavcod



3. What does a Makefile look like on Solaris?

For example, to generate the C library "test.a" for marshalling/unmarshalling functions associated to the specification "test.asn1" you may write:



MAVCOD=$(HOME)/mavros/MAVCOD/mavcod
LIBASN1=$(HOME)/mavros/ASN1/ASN1.a
MAVROS=$(HOME)/mavros/MAVROS/mavros
ASN1=$(HOME)/mavros/ASN1

OPTIONS=
CC=gcc
CFLAGS= -g ${OPTIONS} -I${ASN1}

.c.o:
        $(CC) -c $(CFLAGS) $*.c


all: test.a

test.a: test.make test.c test_init.c test.h
        make -f test.make CFLAGS=" -I${ASN1}" CC="gcc"

test.make test.c test.h: test.mvr test_mvr.h
        ${MAVROS} test.mvr -m test -c -u -a -d test_mvr.h -s test_init.c

test.mvr test_mvr.h test_init.c: test.asn1
        ${MAVCOD} test.asn1

clean :
        rm -f *.o *.macros test.mvr test_mvr.h test_init.c test.make test.c test.h test.a
