Hello,
I have finally decided to make a separate library for controlling a motor. Now I've coded the control into a Arduino sketch but this is somewhat cumbersome... I have never written a library before so this is a big hurdle for me :-[
The motors will be controlled using this motor carrier (Pololu - TB6612FNG Dual Motor Driver Carrier). It accept PWM values to set the speed and uses two digital inputs to determine the detection of the motor(s).
I will be creating a library that controls each motor separately.
I use this tutorial (http://www.arduino.cc/en/Hacking/LibraryTutorial) to make the library, but I think I'll need some help along the way.
First:
What software do you use to create the library? Currently I am using "Visual c++ Express Edition" but this is a very big software package with limited features.
I am looking for some software that will also "Check" the library (similar to the "verify" button in Arduino software, I am a beginning programmer....)? And some CTRL + T functionality to automatically format the code would also be great
What software can you recommend me?
