It is unlikely that the Robobasic command takes command line agruments to do what you want.

It would need to load the .bas file, compile it to intermediate code or an obj file, download to the controller, then run it.

If you are OK in VC++, you could write a simple program to download .obj files. These can be created by Robobasic or some other program you make. You cannot use VC++, directly since the intermediate code for the RN is very simple and not the .NET CLR.

The communication to the robot is also a problem if you want to go wireless. The protocol from PC to RN is done byte by byte in ping pong between the two ( except in actual download). This makes is very very slow if you put bluetooth in that link, even if you raise the link speed.

It is normal on the RN to write a robobasic program which contains poses or simple routines, and then command those over the ERX/ETX link from an external program

[url]can i use VC++ to direct control the RoboNova?[/url]

Of course you can, but first you have to invest in communication hardware such as sparkfun's bluetooth module, find the DLL to communicate with bluetooth module and communicate through the COM (serial communication) service of the bluetooth device.

thanks for your replying

because i have an experiment for image processing

using VC++

when the image processing done , make a file of .bas

i have to send the processed data to robonova

but need to open the robobasic manually

so i think i may use the VC's function "system()" to open robobasic and exeuse the .bas,

=============================================
i have another question XD
can i use VC++ to direct control the RoboNova?
(mean writing program on "Visual C++" software)
(like "Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Express" )
