Thanks for all this help!
Cool, OK so using bela mini card... I stopped Adafruit_TSC2007-OSC running in the background with.....
systemctl stop Adafruit_TSC2007-OSC
I found an earlier version and it seems to work.... and I think I can build up from there. code below....
Still a bit confused/worried why I can't build it up like before. I would love to understand whats going on a bit more so I can debug in the future.
I guess its some interaction between the library, the Dev version, firmware etc. Seems like only you can fix it so sorry about that.
#include "Adafruit_TSC2007.h"
#include <libraries/OscSender/OscSender.h>
// hostAddress should be "localhost" if sending to another application on Bela
// or 192.168.7.1 or 192.168.6.1 if sending to a port on the host computer
// this works and sends to computer when program running as a service
//const char* hostAddress = "192.168.7.1";
// when I try to change to this it still runs but has no effect on the same pd patch. This time on the Bela
const char* hostAddress = "localhost";
//const char* hostAddress = "192.168.7.1";
//int hostPort = 7562;
int hostPort = 57120; // because supercollider is annoying
unsigned int sleepMs = 50; // sleep time between reads
int main()
{
Adafruit_TSC2007 touch;
OscSender oscSender(hostPort, hostAddress);
if (!touch.begin()) {
fprintf(stderr, "Couldn't find touch controller\n");
return 1;
}
printf("Found touch controller\n");
printf("Sending to %s:%d\n", hostAddress, hostPort);
while(1)
{
printf("made it to the while loop\n");
uint16_t x, y, z1, z2;
if(touch.read_touch(&x, &y, &z1, &z2)) {
oscSender.newMessage("/tsc");
oscSender.add(x).add(y).send();
printf("sending_osc from the if loop\n");
}
usleep(sleepMs * 1000);
}
return 0;
}
Anyway this is printing nicely so hopefully I am on the path to getting it all running again on this other board.
Thanks
