Generate the NXT RTC template

We shall use RtcTemplate to generate a template component. You can use the command line tool, rtc-template, or the Eclipse-based tool, RtcTemplate, to create the component.

If using rtc-template, make a batch file containing the following (remember to adjust paths as necessary):

 python "C:\Program Files\OpenRTM-aist\0.4\utils\rtc-template\rtc-template.py" -bpython^
  --module-name=NXTRTC --module-desc="NXT sample component"^
  --module-version=0.1 --module-vendor=AIST --module-category=example^
  --module-comp-type=DataFlowComponent --module-act-type=SPORADIC^
  --module-max-inst=10^
  --inport=vel:TimedFloatSeq^
  --outport=pos:TimedFloatSeq --outport=sens:TimedFloatSeq^
  --config="map:string:A,B"

Executing rtc-template using a created gen.bat:

 > gen.bat
  python "C:\Program Files\OpenRTM-aist\0.4\utils\rtc-template\rtc-template.py"
  -bpython --module-name=NXTRTC --module-desc="NXT sample component" 
  --module-version=0.1 --module-vendor=AIST --module-category=example 
  --module-comp-type=DataFlowComponent --module-act-type=SPORADIC 
  --module-max-inst=10 --inport=vel:TimedFloatSeq 
  --outport=pos:TimedFloatSeq --outport=sens:TimedFloatSeq
  --config="map:string:A,B"
 
   File "NXTRTC.py" was generated.
   File "README.NXTRTC" was generated.
   File "NXTRTC.yaml" was generated.
