FRC DRIVER STATION WINDOWS INSTALL
Install the C++11 Toolchain by executing the downloaded installer.
The most recent version tested with Thunder cRIO Tools was "Beta 1".
Download the current version of the C++ cRIO Toolchain from our File Releases Page. This toolchain needs to be downloaded and installed separately: Thunder cRIO Tools makes use of an external toolchain to compile your C++ programs to binary form. Thunder cRIO Tools should produce binaries that work with both the 4-slot cRIO-FRCII and the older 8-slot cRIO-FRC (though 8-slot support has not yet been tested - we'd love to hear your experiences!) Linux and other OSs are not supported at this time because Eclipse already supports cross-compilation on most UNIX-like OS's as-is. Thunder cRIO Tools should work on any Windows-based PC capable of running Eclipse. FRC DRIVER STATION WINDOWS HOW TO
The sections below detail how to install and use the Eclipse plug-in for cRIO C++ development, as well as how to set up (image) the cRIO for use and how to set up the FRC driver station software to interface with the cRIO controller. The plug-in has been tested to operate alongside the new WPILib plug-ins for C++ development on the new NI roboRIO, so you can easily develop for both controllers in one Eclipse environment. Thunder cRIO Tools is primarily a plug-in for the Eclipse IDE that enables easy compilation and deployment of C++ programs to the NI cRIO controller for use in FRC-related activities.
