Call to getBright() hangs forever.

[Victor Norman]

This simple code makes my program hang.:

connect();
cout << robot.getBright("right") << endl;
disconnect();

I have Ubuntu 10.04, Scribbler2, fluke 2.9.1, scribbler firmware 1.0.2, myroC++ 2.2.2.

I am unable to replicate this on my setup, using a Scribbler 1. Unfortunately, I do not have access to a Scribbler2 to test it.

[John Hoare (jhoare)]

Can you verify that this always happens? Perhaps this only happens when the scribbler is not correctly connected? Can you verify under the same connection that other functions are working? I'll admit we haven't really used getBright() in any of our labs.

Okay, After implementing the senses() and getAll() functions, i'm getting this behavior as well.

Looks like (verifying with Python Mailing list) this is likely a bug w/ the blueooth stack, of the fluke has gotten into a weird state. When I was having difficulties, it was not working with the Python version either.
