halviewer, go or no go?

Hallo friend,
nice project! I need to make something similar in C++, but I don't know how to get full tree of all HAL components, pins, etc. I have tried to analyse halshow.tcl script, but I am not able to understand it and transfer it to Qt C++
Can you help me how to do this?
Thanx a lot!

Hi Ikavan,

looking into the .tlc files is certainly not the way to go.
You can look at the halcmd source. Halcmd is a program that can make a list of components, pins, params etc.

To build halcmd you can look at repositories on github.  github.com/grotius-cnc/linuxcnc/tree/master/cmake
Then from there you can create a qt app.
 

Hi Grotius,
thanx for your help. I have checked halcmd source and I have found what I have looked for. HAL reading works!
