Cool! Is this some arbitrary protocol to send CAN messages over ethernet or is this in fact also the same as the HSI protocol? Also have a look at the functions naming, I think we mostly used "snake_case" in this repo |
I blame work.... I spend 8 hours a day typing
My understanding is that HSI is still undecided on if they are going to do DDS, SOME/IP, CAN tunneling, or some other thing... so there may not be an official schema yet. I imagine this would be close-ish to whatever they were thinking for CAN tunneling, but I have no idea haha. Seems likely it's some bespoke PEAK schema. |
Added a CAN plugin for the PEAK ethernet gateway.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
Hahah mixing a little old C stuff with C++'s smart pointers, it does it's job I guess 😆
Describe your changes
Added a CAN hardware plugin for the PEAK Ethernet Gateway.
Works both on Linux and Windows so far!
This does require a small bit of config on the gateway itself. You need to create routes to your computer by IP address, and configure this setting:
The code is very much based on the C example from Peak, which was a little cursed admittedly/
How has this been tested?
Ran VT example from a PC on my local network, connecting to the gateway. Object pool loaded and behaved normally.
