Native code on ChipX

NETMF & Gadgeteer
1

I have my code running on ChipX.

Now how do I make it run native. So it can be faster

2

Search for “RLP” on this forum and documentation.

3

I searched and do not see anything usefull. Like sample code or doc.

WOuld you point me to it

4

See fezzer for my example

5

So I see this code on feezer. But no explanation.
So is my assumption correct.
The first function below is c or cpp.
And is a seperate project or can it be in the same project?
How do I cross compile it for the ChipX.
Then this arm elf file is used like a dll by the .NET MF C# code.
And wher is the parameters for the function passed?

// Include RLP 
 #include <RLP.h> 
// Add 29 + 92 and return 
int Add_c(unsigned int *generalArray, void **args, unsigned int argsCount, unsigned int *argSize) 
{ 
    return 29 + 92; 
}

using System;
using Microsoft.SPOT;
using GHIElectronics.NETMF.System;
using GHIElectronics.NETMF.Native;
namespace RLPTest
{
    public class Program
    {
        public static void Main()
        {
            // Load ELF in byte array 
            byte[] elfFile = Resources.GetBytes(Resources.BinaryResources.Hello_World);
            // Load ELF to RLP 
            RLP.LoadELF(elfFile);
            RLP.InitializeBSSRegion(elfFile);
            // Ge the procedure 
            RLP.Procedure add = RLP.GetProcedure(elfFile, "Add_c");
            // Invoke it 
            Debug.Print(add.Invoke().ToString());
        }
    }
}

The docs explain it all with code examples. Do not use the fezzer example to get started.

Are you trying to convert your managed code to unmanaged code?

8

Gus, which docs explains it all? Is it too much trouble to post a link?
