(except in --net-verbatim mode, where we emit them all)
Move aircraft tracking into track.[ch].
Clean up references to "interactive mode" when tracking
aircraft - we always track aircraft, even in non-interactive
mode.
view1090 was using close to 100% CPU before, with the non-blocking
commits and the reconnection code. sleep a bit between loop iterations
to keep CPU usage low.
CPU usage with this addition was down to <1% in testing.
Make the modifications necessary to compile dump1090 for WinXP, Win7 and
hopefully Win8.
The files can be compiled using M$ Visual Studio/C++ 6.0. Due to various
licensing issues, I haven't included the libraries or DLLs. You will
need to locate pthreadVC2.lib and rtlsdr.lib to link the file, install
the zadig drivers to support the dongle, and locate libusb-1.0.dll,
msvcr100.dll, pthreadVC2.dll and rtlsdr.dll.
dump1090.exe will not run on any Windows version prior to XP SP2,
because msvcr100.dll imports several functions from the Windows kernel
that are not available on earlier versions. This means dump1090 won't
work on Win2K.
The major change to the code relates to file handles. The original code
assumes Linux behaviour in that handles are allocated from 0
sequentially upwards. However Windows handles are allocated pseudo
randomly, and handle numbers greater than 1024 would break the code. The
code has therefore been modified to use a linked list of connection
structures, rather than a static array limited to 1024 entries.
No changes to dump1090, (except the version number)
Include a sample Linux batch start file called dump1090.sh for use when
running dump1090 headless. This file needs to be copied to the
/etc/init.d/ subdirectory on your raspberry pi, and marked as
executable. Then when you re-start your RPi, dump1090 will start-up
auto-magically and run as a sort of server to allow both local and
remote connection to it's various internet ports.
Modified the Makefile to build a new headless helper application called
view1090
Added view1090. This is an executable that allows you to connect to
dump1090 when it is running and 'see' the interactive screen display.
The default is to try and connect to dump1090 on IP address 127.0.0.1
port 30005. This should work if you are running on the same RPi as
dump1090 and using the default dump1090 port settings. However, if
you're running on a different machine you will have to specify the IP
address of the RPi running dump1090 using the --net-bo-ipaddr switch.
Something like "view1090 --net-bo-ipaddr 192.168.2.65" . You may also
have to sudo it, depending on your privilige settings.
I've also compiled view1090 as a Wiin32 exe, so you should be able to
run it under any 32 bit version of Microsoft Windows - i.e. Win95, Win
2K, Win XP, Win 7 etc. It may work on Win 8 and 64 bit Windows, but I
haven't tried it. The Win32 version is compiled from the same source, so
takes all the same command line switches.
