BrainAMP driver

[mcongedo]

Hello,

The existing BrainAMP (Brain Products) driver does not run smoothly.
Gelu Ionescu has developed a new OV driver for BrainAMP.

We ask BrainAMP users to test the new acquisition driver for BrainAMP to verify that it works nicely also with you.
If so, we propose to replace the ancient acquisition driver with the one developed at GIPSA-lab, which is stable now,
according to the principle:
"the new driver must do at least what the ancient driver do and at least as well".

see thread;
viewtopic.php?f=5&t=407
for details.

Thanks,

marco CONGEDO,

I take this opportunity to post a reminder for people wanting to contribute to OpenViBE.
It is important to keep in mind that we defined some contribution rules. As stated on the main developer documentation page :

If you want to see your work integrated in the project, you must follow the coding rules specified by the lead developer team. These rules are available on this page : Contribution rules. Please read this page carefully !
We won't integrate any candidate modules that does not follow these rules.

This is also important not to break the global design of the proposed APIs.
Hope this eases the integration of people wanting to contribute.

Hello Yann,

what irregularity have you found?
We will fix irregularities that are flagged.
If you refer to the buffer class declaration, we can find a solution for that.

All this concerns the implementation.
In the meanwhile, it is still important that the driver for BrainAMP is tested by current BrainAMP users.
We would like a feedback on this so as to know if the drivers works for everybody like it is.

Cheers,

Marco

Dear Marco,

it is indeed the buffering thing, the coding rules that are not fully respected, the API breakage.

Meanwhile, it is indeed interesting to know what the community thinks about this driver as compared to the existing & updated one.
