CANopenNode
Plans for a future Linux release
I recently finished a driver to use CANopenNode under NuttX. Now, I'd like to do quite some tests and well use all of this. Problem is my whole workflow only uses linux (Ubuntu to dev and NuttX is (or tries to be) also POSIX compliant). Problem is, as far as I've seen, this editor only works on windows.
I'd like a realease for linux and/or docs on how to build for linux (cf #189).
I tried using Wine. No success so far but will keep trying and if, at some point, it ends up working, I could write the linux build documentation.
Got good and bad news for you.
Good news:
- Other have got the editor to work with linux in the past at least.
- We are working on converting to newer .net version what will work natively on linux, mac & windows
- The cli is currently working
bad news:
- The GUI is not ready..yet, that is the EDSEditorGUI2 in the source.
If you tell me a little about what function you need in the gui i might be able to get that working.
Tbh, I just need my node to send a few predefined PDOs to another device and MAYBE get an answer but I think the answer can be safely ignored if needed. I just need a basic OD file pair to do that...
I think I'll update the Makefile to make things easier for Linux users (there is one so why not use it haha).
totaly forgot about it, but the editor works with mono Tested it on Ubuntu 25.10 the other day and editing and exploring canopennode source files work without any problems. There are know bugs for other export formats, but it should work for your limited use
