Free Webinar: Developing code for the APM

On Monday July 16th 2012, at 5pm Pacific Time,I will be hosting a 90min webinar on Developing for the APM. 

Guests will include several members of the development team and from 3DR.

The webinar will cover some of the following topics, time permitting (we may have to split it into two webinars):

Part A

  • Setting up a development environment on Windows, Linux or Mac
  • Getting the code (download and git)
  • Compiling the code for different configurations

Part B

  • A guided tour of the code, explaining how different pieces fit together
  • From idea to running code - code, compile, test, document, create a patch and submit for review (for a bug or feature)
  • Developer support tools: autotest, autobuild, SITL, HIL, jenkins

If you would like to attend this webinar, please respond here:

(this is a courtesy RSVP so we can evaluate attendance - the meeting is open to all anyway)

Prerequisites

To get the most value out of the webinar it is suggested that you read the wiki (especially the Appendix) and have the latest Arduino IDE (1.01) and a copy of the source code. You also must have at least a basic understanding of programming languages, but you do not need to be a programmer (this is for all levels of experience)

I am also would be very grateful if tbhe webinar were recorded, as I will be on the road too. Looks like a good oportunity to get a jump start and see how the code fits together. I have written code for pics back in 2005-2006 and hope to compare the arduino code with that and with the open pilot code.

Maybe someone could bump this back to the front page on Monday before the webinar.

Reminder to all that this is today

+1 on recording. I am on a movie set and can watch it but no audio, "Quite on the set". Some how I missed the original post and didn't come prepared. I should ask the sound guy for some headphones. Doesn't google hangouts in G+ allow for recording?

This time is good for me. I will join for sure.

I'm very excited for this. Thanks for putting this webinar together. As others have mentioned, it would be great if this could be recorded for future reference. Thanks again!

I will be recording my screen and my audio. But I will only capture my voice (I have no easy way of recording the call)

It would be great if someone can record the screen remotely and someone could also record the audio from the audio conference remotely (to catch both sides of the audio). Then I could sync the audio from another source with my video, and there would also be a backup in case my recording fails. So, please if you can, record and send to me afterwards
