Hi,
I'm going to be trying to port the A2000IS, and I was thinking that this might be a good starting point. so, first , thanks to Diablo for posting your source.
I have a couple questions for the community
- Is the A1000 probably a good starting point, rather than the A720?
- when does a camera get added to trunk? I notice that diablo's a1000 isn't in trunk. Is that because it has not yet reached some standard of doneness? People obviously want to collaborate on this project, but it's difficult to do that if the code is not in source control.
Thanks!
Rather than repeating, I'll just link my post in
http://chdk.setepontos.com/index.php/topic,3977.0.htmlI would not suggest the A1000 as a reference, because it was unfinished, the code is against an old version of the trunk, and it was done by someone who was fairly new to the CHDK codebase.
Also, you might want to get in touch with the OP of that thread I linked, since he was also going to work on the A2000
As to why A1000 isn't in the trunk yet... partly because it was never finished, and partly because diablo took a long time to post his source, and partly laziness... I will probably check in the platform code so it will be easier for someone to continue work on it.
Ports generally get added to the trunk when they are pretty much complete, although I am in favor of adding work-in-progress as it makes it easier for people to collaborate.
