Andrew,

That is just the initial check-in, but if you read the comments at the
beginning of schedrmt.cc you will see how it works, or at least should work
once everything is tested. Basically what it does is talks to another new
module emcsched.cc which schedules programs (i.e. gcode files) to execute in
a specified sequence.

I wrote it to handle doing a lot of small parts like jewelry, labels, etc.
without having to either combine them into one big file or have an operator
standing by to run them one at a time. It also allows for prioritizing the
programs in queue, adding, deleting and changing their order in the queue.
At this point it is pretty simple, just a container class that sorts on
priority, monitors task execution, and sends MDI commands to set up the next
program.

At this point it basically works at least through manually entering commands
through the telnet interface. I am modifying a user interface to talk to it,
which is also a more convenient means of doing the remaining testing as well
as stress testing.

There were several posts about it over in EMC Developers.

Regards,
Eric


I was trolling through cvs, and found the SHEDRMT.CC.  Could someone please
explain what this is/can be used for.
