FT-847.

Morning,

Its raining out so I had the opportunity to get some stuff working  
this morning.  I installed hamlib 1.2.6 shortly after it came out but  
never got a chance to do anything.  I have it back installed and  
running again.

Now, how could I contribute? I've not been paying much attention to  
the list of late, so I'm not sure what the status is.

Regards
de John

Building RPMs on FC6 from spec file

A quick question to anyone that knows, I've just rebuilt the hamlib
rpms using v1.2.6.1 source but am finding that I need to edit the spec
file to remove the %{version} macros from the libhamlib and libhamlib++
entries in the %files section.

I don't see why this should be, but for some reason the version string
isn't being inserted into the library names during compilation. I can't
see any obvious arguments that should be passed to rpmbuild to do this,
so any ideas why I'm seeing this problem?

TIA

Spring time brings a lot of projects my way (and I'm sure that's true for 
everyone), so I haven't been seeing much happening in the way of commits to 
CVS.  When you have your patches ready, just post them to this list.  The 
complete file or a unified diff is fine.  I'll get them committed.

Ha ha.. patches... are you sure you want them from me :).

I'll go through the README.betatester stuff first.. make sure it all  
works as described.

I'll have a browse around the code first, see what is missing that I  
would find useful.

Hamlib for windows

Greetings,

I am currently not a developer, but soon hope to be. I am for now an end
user trying to get hamlib working. I have had contact with Alex and he has
been helpful, but he says that he is not a windows person, so I put this out
to the windows developers.

I am trying to write a small utility program to talk with my FT-817. I am
using a windows XP environment with Borland Builder v5 C++ as my compiler.
It is not visual C++.

I tried linking the libmamlib-2.lib file just to find out that it was a
visual C++ file. I changed to libhamlib.dll.a. This compiled and linked with
no errors, however I did not try and make any calls. 

When I add the rig.h include to my source file, I start receiving the
following errors. These are not all the errors, but a sample. 

[C++ Error] stdio.h(362): E2238 Multiple declaration for 'std'
[C++ Error] stdio.h(362): E2141 Declaration syntax error using std::FILE; 
    using std::FILE;

[C++ Error] rig.h(1043): E2303 Type name expected 
    rig_model_t rig_model; /*!< Rig model. */ 

[C++ Error] rig.h(1043): E2139 Declaration missing ; 
    rig_model_t rig_model; /*!< Rig model. */ 

[C++ Error] rig.h(1428): E2141 Declaration syntax error 
    extern HAMLIB_EXPORT(RIG *) rig_init rig_model_t rig_model; 

/*!< Rig model. */ HAMLIB_PARAMS((rig_model_t rig_model)); 

[C++ Error] rig.h(1429): E2337 Only one of a set of overloaded functions can
be "C" 
    extern HAMLIB_EXPORT(int) rig_open HAMLIB_PARAMS((RIG *rig)); 

>From the example it seems that I only need to include the rig.h file, link
the library, and make sure that the dll's are in the same directory. Then I
just write the code to access the functions. Sounds simple, but I can't seem
to get it working.

Can anyone help?
Thanks, 
Steve

Howto update the description of a supported radio?

At the hamlib website we have some information about the supported radios and 
their properties under 

http://hamlib.sourceforge.net/sup-info/support/modelxyz.txt

Does anybody know how to update these? The information about the TS570 is quite
dated as I did some work in the last year. Maybe we should also check that the
other rig descriptions are not dated.

Nate, how are the plans for the next minor release (1.2.6.2)?

I think there is (was) a semi-automatic procedure to update the rig 
support info on the web - Stephane must have done it.  Does Nate have info?

As web-maintainer, I could do updates based on info anyone gives me, but 
I don't want to make changes that get overwritten at a later time.

update of rig description

Hi Martin,

It seems that the page is the normal output of the 'rigctl -m xxx 1' command.
But I do not know how the referring page is generated. At least the rig model,
the version and the state (beta,...) is cited there.

That makes sense. So let us see if Nate has some info about.

The procedure was partly commited to CVS. I've just cleaned it up, and
committed the last bit right now. So a "cvs update" in tests/ subdir will be
needed. Note also that you will need the libgd-dev package for rigmatrix
to compile.

Okay, so here's the procedure:

1. Compile hamlib locally
2. cd tests ; make rigmatrix.html
3. scp -r sup-info/* username <at> shell.sourceforge.net:/home/groups/h/ha/hamlib/htdocs/sup-info/.

I've just updated the files. Tom, can you check if the updated
information shows up? From now on, the procedure should be done upon
each hamlib release. Nate, do you have a schedule for the next one?
