Trouble Running Robogen

[Andrew Walker]

I'm having trouble with robogen both using windows 10 and on mac.

On mac I am unable to get robogen to compile. I am getting a number of errors such as:

error: invalid argument '-std=c++11' not allowed with 'C/ObjC'

On windows I am able to get robogen to compile but when I run the file viewer, it crashes after a few seconds. The error for this is:

Unhandled exception at 0x77C8628C (ntdll.dll) in robogen-file-viewer.exe: 0xC0000374: A heap has been corrupted (parameters: 0x77CB6480)

Any help for either of these issues would be greatly appreciated

Hello Andrew,

Unfortunately I cannot reproduce your bug because I don't have windows 10. However, I will see what I can find out. In the mean time, the software is well tested for ubuntu 14.04. Otherwise, the online version of the file viewer should be able to work for files generated with the desktop version. here:
http://robogen.org/app/
click on the 'advanced' tab, upload the your .json file to the virtual file system along with the corresponding configuration files (including starting positions, obstacles and light sensors). Finally click on 'Launch a simulation', and you should be able to see the robot move, as welll as collect information for analysing or building it.

Hope this helps,

Alice
