NAME
lnptest2 - LNP Client Test Application #2 (shorter test) SYNOPSIS
lnptest2 DESCRIPTION
lnptest2 is an LNP Daemon test client used to test the connection between a client LNP program (in this case lnptest2) and the LNP daemon through the Ir Tower to a corresponding test program running in an RCX. See the FILES section for the location of the RCX test program source code (distributed with this package). OPTIONS
lnptest2 does not support command-line options. USAGE
To run the test: - compile the lnptest2.c RCX program - start the lnpd daemon - download the lnptest2.lx program to the RCX - at the RCX, run the program just downloaded to the RCX - run this lnptest2 program - inspect the output looking for lack of failure messages FILES
/usr/share/doc/lnpd/examples/rcx In this directory is the source to the RCX-side program which is called lnptest2.c but written to be compiled against BrickOS. SEE ALSO
lnptest(1), lnpdll(1), lnpd(8) You can find additional documentation in /usr/share/doc/lnpd (on Debian GNU/Linux systems) AUTHOR
