BasicX Development Suite
BasicX is a programming language for a series of microcontrollers designed and built by NetMedia, Inc. These microcontrollers, the BX01, the BX24, and BX35,
are little more than a modified AVR with a bootloader. However, the presence of the bootloader means that we can only program them using the BasicX language.
This language is feature-complete with VB 6, and can only be compiled by an IDE nearly ten-years old.
These tools are written to change that.
There are three scripts, bxbuild, bxdebug, and bxproj, and a suite of shared libraries they all depend upon.
- bxproj: Creates new BasicX projects using default templates
- bxbuild: Wrapper for the compiler, it will compile code and download that code to target devices
- bxdebug: Serial port monitor that will read Debug.Print debugging messages from a connected processor
