-> Ndless v1.1 (http://www.ticalc.org/archives/files/fileinfo/426/42626.html)
This is a bug fix and usability release, compatible with Computer Link 1.4 and with a build chain easier to use.
Non-developers users with Ndless already installed may not be interested by this version, except for the OS upgrade fix.
Developers, as Ndless is work in progress, you will have to slightly adapt your source code, Makefiles and development environment as described in the section "Upgrading your developments and scripts" of the ReadMe file. Sorry for the inconvinience.
Here is the changelog:
Installer:
- NEW: Compatible with Computer Link Software 1.4
- NEW: Possible manual step to work around missed reboots
- FIX: Installer doesn't force downgrade anymore when already on OS v1.1
- FIX: Some transfer errors were not correctly reported
Loader:
- FIX: The OS could not be upgraded while Ndless was installed
Tools:
- NEW: Building executables made a little easier. See the demo's Makefile and "How do I
set up a development environment?" section above.
- NEW: Supports YAGARTO v4.5.0
- FIX: MakeTNS: better error checking
Include files:
- NEW: Added fgets, stdin, stdout, stderr (thanks bsl)
- NEW: Added printf, fprintf (thanks bwang)
- NEW: Exhaustive key constants (thanks bwang)
- NEW: added halt, idle
- NEW: (ARM) added halt
- FIX: log_rs232, fread
[edit] the URL is now ticalc.org's.

Cool! I would download, but I already got Ndless installed. Should I reinstall it with this version?
-
Mhmm this goes in news for sure, moving thread now. Nice work ExtendeD. I will download this when I need Ndless again. :)
-
Awsome, no more constant crashing with 1.3!
-
Yeah I had lot of issues in Windows 7 64 bit with it x.x
-
Thanks for the update ExtendeD!
I updated my Development Environment Tutorial for this version of Ndless. ;)
-
BrandonW should update nspire8x
-
Yaay! Finally, some progress on ndless!
Is printf to the screen, or is it to the rs232 port?
-
Wait, we can printf() now???!!! Holy crap
-
Something else I thought of, could Nleash be intergrated into this, so if a user has the 2.1 os, the installer sends the Nleash file and instructs the user to open it.
-
Good work everyone who did this!
-
fb39ca4: printf prints to the serial console
ExtendeD: Will programs built under our old (1.0) development environments still work with Ndless 1.1?
-
fb39ca4: anyway I hope Nleash won't be required for Ndless in the near future.
bwang: yes, the program format hasn't change.
-
Hey, whaqt is the problem you have with 2.0? You said 1.7 is set to go, I just want to know what are the 2.0 problems...
-
Sorry, we won't discuss of any exploit publicly for good reasons.
-
Ah, thats right, forgot.... stupid me
/me facepalms
-
Works at last with 1.4 Computer Link Software!!! Yay!
Even though I already had Ndless installed, I upgraded! ;D
Awesome work guys; wish you good luck with Ndless 2!
-
Great!
-
Awesome job by all involved! Thanks for making Nspire Asm support a reality! ;D

Setting up USB connectivity...
ERROR: navnet.dll' not found
Installation aborted.
^ :( It still doesnt work with 1.4...
-
Instead of using TI's linking libraries, why not use TILP's? Then, you can also get permission to distribute those with the installer.
-
One issue is if someone's using Windows 7 64 bit and doesn't want to go through the whole hassle of dealing with drivers. Some people still want to use TI-Connect for their 84+ transfers.

Well, that's strange, everything worked fine for me. Try reinstalling TI Connect.
-
Ok, it works, but it now says "no handheld connected"
-

ERROR: No device connected

come on I need help..
-
You should maybe ask in a help topic in the appropriate section, as news isn't really the place to ask help

I got several problem reports with Nldess v1.1 and Computer Link Software v1.4 in the past few month, unfortunately none of which I can reproduce with my own configuration (32-bit Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows 7 on two different computers).
Many bug reports are specific to the users's configuration and seem not to depend on Ndless itself (see qazz42 reinstallation of Computer Link above, that changes the error). The only issue reported by several users is the following error during the installation:
- Transferring loader
ERROR: The transfer cannot be completed because the computer file or folder could not be accessed.
Ndless v1.7 is at the moment not ready for a release, so I would like to make the v1.1 branch fully stable.
Ndless v1.1.1 (http://bytecode.fr/ti-nspire/ndless-v1.1.1.zip) is available: it is a maintenance release trying to fix the issue above (altough I can't test it). It also includes a diagnostic mode. Anyone who had issues with Ndless v1.1 can please try this version and send me the diagnostic file as described in the ReadMe if there are still any troubles.
* v1.1.1 - <2010/10/16>
Installer:
- NEW: Diagnostic mode for problem reports (see "Troubleshooting" above)
- CHG: Change file transfer path handling, which may fix some transfer errors
Include files:
- FIX: isKeyPressed made sometimes the program hang
-
holy lying program!
all ndless 1.x is claiming I dont have computer link installed even though I reinstalled 1.3 and then 1.4 multipal times >.<
-
try installing in default location?

hmm, still, I think win7 bit puts nspire link files in different folders >.<
damn, at least our xp computer installs it fine :)
