`Re: WOSA/XMC, Draft 2, Section 3.3
`
`Hello Dave,
`
`For this correspondence I would like to brainstorm Section 3.3 that
`describes a scenario for code generation as it relates to
`"Initialization Tuning". However, I am not familiar with with the
`concept of "Initialization Tuning" in our products. Also, I wasn’t
`sure which MCAPI code generation interface this refers to, although
`I did see an Initialize method in the ICurrentState interface.
`
`While we’re on the subject of code generation interfaces, I think
`there is a better way of implementing code generation than using
`code generation interlaces. How about giving each interface the
`capability of doing code generation. For example, the C code from
`Section 4 (pMove->lnterpolated(3, ad)) could either perform the
`interpolated move or generate code for the interpolated move and save
`it to a file. At the MCAPI level code generation could be turned on/off
`via a flag passed to an interface method.
`
`Also, in our products there would be 2 kinds of code generation. First,
`there is program code generation. For example,
`
`DEF PROG1 ;Define a program
`D100,200 ;
`GO11 ;Move to XY=100,200
`OUTl1101 ;Turn some outputs onloff
`;Wait 2 seconds
`T2
`;End program definition
`END
`
`RUN PROG1 ;Execute program
`
`The second kind of code generation would not generate the DEF, END and RUN
`statements. The code would be a stream of commands meant to be executed

`

`
`on the lly~one of our control products. I call this on-the-fly code
`generation.
`
`Rather than send generated code to a Windows Registry, I would like to
`allow the user or programmer to specify where the resultant code should
`go. The user or programmer might also want to generate code to several
`files in one application.
`
`With’regards to initialization, will WOSA/XMC provide guidelines as
`to what should be included in an Initialize function at the MCSPI level?
`Your example in Section 3 suggests some sort of axis-specific
`initialization via an axis data structure. I’m assuming this structure
`holds info like axis scaling, encoder resolution, drive resolution
`(steppers), end-of-travel and home limit settings, default motion, etc.
`Our products also have system wide initialization such as I/O definitions,
`memoq/partitions, performance parameters, etc. Furthermore, there is
`special initialization for special features such as contouring, following,
`registration, joystick, etc.
