- ORTE - OCERA Real-Time Ethernet
+ ORTE - Open Real-Time Ethernet
+ ------------------------------
What is it?
-----------
-The ORTE is open source implementation of RTPS communication protocol
+ORTE is open source implementation of RTPS communication protocol
defined by Real Time Innovations (http://www.rti.com).
RTPS is new application layer protocol targeted to real-time communication
area, which is build on top of standard UDP stack.
Which targets are supported by ORTE?
---------------------------
-Linux
-Windows - MinGW, CygWin, MSVC
-RTLinux
-RTAI - RTNet
-
-How to install it?
-------------------
+-----------------------------------
+UNIX - Linux, Solars, MacOS, FreeBSD
+Windows - MinGW, CygWin, MSVC, PharLap
+RTLinux - with preliminary UDP stack
+RTAI - with RTNet
+JAVA
+
+note: was tested on
+sparc-sun-solaris2.9
+powerpc-apple-darwin6.8
+
+How to compile and install it?
+---------------------------
+
simply untar instalation package into desired directory, enter this
directory and issue following commands.
make
make install
-after this procedure ortemanager and orteping are placed in /usr/local/bin.
+After this procedure ortemanager and orteping are placed in /usr/local/bin,
+library is placed in /usr/local/lib and include headers in /usr/local/include.

+RTLinux compilation with wIP: (DEPRICATED)
+./configure --with-linux=/patched_linux_dir/ --with-rtlinux=/rtlinux_dir/ --with-rtlinuxwip=/wip_dir/
+make
+make install
-RTLinux compilation:
-./configure --with-rtlinuxdir=/rtlinux dir/ --with-linuxdir=/patched linux dir/
+RTLinux compilation with onetd: (DEPRICATED)
+./configure --with-linux=/patched_linux_dir/ --with-rtlinux=/rtlinuxh_dir/ --with-rtlinuxonetd=/onetd_dir/
make
make install
RTAI compilation:
-./configure --with-rtaidir=/rtai dir/ --with-linuxdir=/patched linux dir/
+./configure --with-linux=/patched_linux_dir/ --with-rtai=/rtai dir/ --with-rtnet=/rtnet dir/
make
make install
+JAVA compilation:
+./configure --with-java=/java_home_dir/
+make
+make install
+
+
+Another way, how to compile ORTE project is to use OMK compilation
+method. See https://rtime.felk.cvut.cz/omk/ for details about OMK. For
+standalone compilation (without OCERA), just copy folder orte to other
+(private) destination. Run ./switch2standalone in the root of orte
+directory.
+
+Now just type a run
+make
+
+in the root of the ORTE project will be create two direcories, which contains compilation results.
How to start?
-------------
+
run :ortemanager &
-see :ortemanager -h for usaged
+see :ortemanager -h for usage
note:ortemanager have to be running during all communication. For future work can
be added into /etc/init.d/... script for starting ortemanager during boot
-of machine. This script (redhat and mandrake) is placed in
+of machine. This scripts (redhat and mandrake) are located in
"orte/manager/rc/ortemanagerd"
For developping a RT application, ortemnager can be running in userspace.
Start it with parameter "-k 192.168.4.2". This address is IP address of
How to test communication?
-------------------------
+
in a shell try to type "orteping -p -s". So, now will be created one publisher
and one subscriber with same topic and type. If you see messages like
Now, you can develop self applications (see documentation).
+Obtaining the code from Git repository
+--------------------------------------
+
+You can obtain the latest ORTE source code from Git repository by
+running:
+
+ $ git clone git://git.code.sf.net/p/orte/orte
+
+Building From Git
+-----------------
+To build ORTE code from Git, you will need Autoconf, Automake, and any
+tools that those utilities require (GNU m4, Perl, etc.). See the
+configure.in file to find the minimum versions of each of these tools.
+After checking out the code, you will need to perform these steps to
+get to the point where you can run "configure" and "make".
+ $ make -f Makefile.cvs
