dgarrett: thanks for all your work!

I have two questions:
1. Switching kinematics works for me as MDI Commands. However using them in gcode trips a message "M429: identity kins M429: Wrong motion.switchkins-type or missing hal net to analog-out-0x STOP"
My ini file contains the line "HALCMD = :kinstype-select <=motion.analog-out-03 => motion.switchkins-type" What am I missing here?
2. Would it be possible to expand this approach to three kinematics, say for a tool coordinate mode?

thanks for report,
fixed at today's commit 2216a4ba8 (force-pushed)

Would it be possible to expand this approach to three
kinematics, say for a tool coordinate mode?

in the dgarr/s_kins branch, switchable kinematics modules
must provide two functions:

kinematicsSwitchable(); //indicates kins can be switched
kinematicsSwitch(int switchkins_type); //accepts integer for kins type

A switchable kinematics module must handle this integer type
in both its kinematicsForward() and kinematicsInverse()
routines.

genser-switchkins.c supports 2 types (0 and 1),excerpt:

int kinematicsSwitch(int new_kins_type)
{
    switchkins_type = new_kins_type;
    switch (switchkins_type) {
        case 0: rtapi_print_msg(RTAPI_MSG_INFO,
                "kinematicsSwitch:genserkins\n");
                *switchdata->kinstype_is_0 = 1;
                *switchdata->kinstype_is_1 = 0;
                break;
        case 1: rtapi_print_msg(RTAPI_MSG_INFO,
                "kinematicsSwitch:Trivkins\n");
                *switchdata->kinstype_is_0 = 0;
                *switchdata->kinstype_is_1 = 1;
                break;
...
int kinematicsForward(const double *joints,
...
    switch (switchkins_type) {
       case 0: return genserKinematicsForward(joints, pos, fflags, iflags);break;
      default: return   trivKinematicsForward(joints, pos, fflags, iflags);
...
int kinematicsInverse(const EmcPose * pos,
...
    switch (switchkins_type) {
       case 0: return genserKinematicsInverse(pos, joints, iflags, fflags);break;
      default: return   trivKinematicsInverse(pos, joints, iflags, fflags);

(the *switchdata->kinstype_is_* vars are used as convenience hal pins to
alter a (pyvcp) display)

Refs:
github.com/LinuxCNC/linuxcnc/blob/dgarr/...ser-switchkins.c#L74
github.com/LinuxCNC/linuxcnc/blob/dgarr/...er-switchkins.c#L119
github.com/LinuxCNC/linuxcnc/blob/dgarr/...er-switchkins.c#L150

I have no ideas about tool coordinates but if the required
information can be made available on hal pins, it can
be read by your custom kinematics module.

Thank you for the prompt reply!

~~I built the new version but I'm still unable to run the gcode.~~

Disregard! I'm a noob and have copied the old remap.ngc files back to the new build.

Thanks
