Re: [BFR] Status

Mikie,


> I was wondering what the status of development was.

Quiet.  I have versions of this code as specialized routing and BBMD code in production, but nothing is broken, so it hasn't had any more development time.  I have been busy with BACpypes and some other BACnet related projects.

Be aware that this code base stops at the network layer, it does not have an application layer.  It also does not handle the half-router messages correctly (I-Could-Be-Router-To-Network, Establish-Connection-To-Network, etc).

No, you need to build it on your platform.

The source code is here [1] and you can check it out here [2].  There is a build script in the BFR/ subdirectory of the trunk/.  There is documentation in the tags/0.2/Documentation/ directory that is going to be moved over the to sphinx trunk/doc/ directory at some point.

The tags/0.2/Testing/ directory has some older test files, I'm not sure if they work correctly, it's been a while.  In the trunk/test/ directory is a sample application that is supposed to do the same thing when you use the BFR application with the XML configuration file as when you use the code as a library.  My intent is to go through the rest of the older samples and make sure they work, and translate them to CPP applications as well.

If you have a specific application I could help you with it.
