Hello, I'm trying to implement a protocol plugin that talks to the opensource MakerBot boards (to be more specific, the Sailfish firmware: https://github.com/jetty840/Sailfish-MightyBoardFirmware).
I may need some more information on how do I implement an IPrinterConnection.
for example, under what circumstances these member functions are called, and what do I have to pay attention when setting properties.
for example, I am having hard times figuring out what's the difference between "numExtruder" and "numberExtruder", what's the purpose for "addPrintingTime" (why is it an property but not a function?), and why "extract" takes two arguments and wants a string in reply (what kind of a string do I have to return anyway?)... etc.
really could put some effort on documentations in http://rhplugins.repetier.com/...</div><div>the targeted Repetier-Host version would be 1.5.
the project would be entirely open sourced, too.
at least I can flood some hello messages to the log console, atm.
trying to figure out how do I open the serial connection.
