Downloading RoboSoc

The latest build of RoboSoc-2.7.0 (2005-11-22). A new version of RoboSoc is released as an alfa version RoboSoc 2.7.0. It is similar to RoboSoc-2.5, the main difference is that it uses RCCParser (version 0.11a) by Tom Howard instead of its own parser. RCCParser can downloaded from sourceforge.

A new snapshot from 2002-10-25 is available. It includes more support for the latest version of RCCParser (we use CVS-version), which supports parts of the version 8 protocol.

The old version RoboSoc 2.5.0 is also available. It is a completely updated version of RoboSoc-1.5 with added support for logging, debugging and error handling. It also incorporates the new naming standard used by RoboSoc. This does unfortunately mean that old programs will not work with the new version of RoboSoc.

It includes support for Solaris, Linux and FreeBSD.

RoboSoc needs a C++ compiler that supports namespaces, I have used gcc 3.01.
