Provide ZIP download of just Java and C++ artifacts
Closed this issue · 6 comments
The current download includes a setup.exe executable that extracts and installs the navX-MXP software and libraries, but this works only on Windows. Users that are on MacOS or Linux do not have a way of accessing the library files for Java and C++.
Please provide a second downloadable ZIP file that includes only the library files and examples for Java and C++ (really, everything already in the java and cpp directories created in the installation by the current installer) but can be used by anyone running Windows, MacOS, or Linux.
It already exists. See bottom of http://www.pdocs.kauailabs.com/navx-mxp/software/
Closing as "already-implemented".
@sciencewhiz, @kauailabs Great to see! Perhaps it'd be useful to add a link to the Java page.
The existing ZIP is for the official release, and I don't see a download for the beta version. Any idea when the beta version will be released and available this way?
Release is planned for this Friday; other cool stuff is coming, so stay tuned to ChiefDelphi or @kauailabs twitter/Facebook accounts.
I'll look into adding links to the Linux/MacOS libraries for Java and C++ on those respective pages, thanks for the suggestion.
Awesome!
@kauailabs Any idea why a build of mine on Travis-CI might get a 403 Forbidden while trying to get http://www.kauailabs.com/public_files/navx-mxp/navx-mxp-libs.zip when that same build can get to other web resources (like https:github.com and http://first.wpi.edu)? Same build runs fine locally, and my laptop can download that ZIP file just fine. Might some IP addresses under Amazon's EC2 ranges (which travis-ci.com uses) be blocked by kauailabs.com?
