I made it, gmoccapy reached stable state!

The main difference from previous versions is that gmoccapy is now stand alone, completely separated from gscreen.
This has two main reasons:

1. gmoccapy has become so complex, that it is not any more a typical gscreen skin, it is an own application.
2. I got a speed advantage because I do not need as much timers as before.

But take care!
Due to the change, all hal pin has changed their names from gscreen. to gmoccapy. and also the tooloffset pin changed their names.
I did update the WIKI according to the changes, so please read it!

I hope to get now a more easy product for support, because there will be less influence from other code parts and I can put more effort in new features.

I would like to express, that this decision has nothing to do with gscreen and its very good code and features and that this decision is completely conform to Chris opinion. Chris I thank you for gscreen and I will also in the feature have an eye on that, because without gscreen I would never have begone to code gmoccapy.

THANKS CHRIS!

Hope you will support me also in feature!

Norbert


Congrats to you Norbert for Gmoccapy 1.0 - alot of hard work you have put in.

I have enjoyed our work together - you have made Gscreen better and given more choices to the people.
Thanks for the shout out - I am happy I could help you.

Gmoccapy is an excellent screen. - Another step up for linuxcnc.
I am happy you are another official developer of linuxcnc too

Of course I will support you in the future.
Feel free to send idea/opinion my way - we don't have to always agree but ideas thrown about helps create better products.

Hello all,

i have installed the last update from buildbot today.
after that i have trouble with gmoccapy screen.
My ini file contained:
Code:
DISPLAY = gscreen -c gmoccapy -d

this worked for me until the last update.

now, after the update linuxcnc starts with the gscreen and does not show me the gmoccapy screen.

also:
Code:
DISPLAY = gmoccapy
does not works for me:
Code:

The entry for the display should read

DISPLAY = gmoccapy

just change the current line by deleting the gscreen and the -d stuff. Also have a look at the Wiki page for more instructions

If that does not work make sure that you have run ./autogen.sh and ./configure from the /src directory before you do the make..

until now I've never compiled linuxcnc or gmoccapy self.
is that now necessary?

Yes of coarse it is required. There is s lot of files that is being moved or deleted and the complete make proses will sort out all that for you automatically. Also if you do not compile you will not have the latest binaries in the correct places.
Do This every time:

git pull
cd /src
./autogen.sh
./configure
make
sudo make setuid
