[Paparazzi-devel] change AP mode with joystick?

[Chris]

Hi.
For Reto: i edited the pages but how can i upload a picture for the Gallery?
Now for my main question, could the airborne code be changed in order to 
allow for setting the pprz mode from a Joystick through a variable?
I will test this method inside main_ap.c but i am not sure if what i am 
doing is correct :


#if defined RADIO_CONTROL || defined RADIO_CONTROL_AUTO1
static inline uint8_t pprz_mode_update( void ) {
  if ((pprz_mode != PPRZ_MODE_HOME &&
       pprz_mode != PPRZ_MODE_GPS_OUT_OF_ORDER)
#ifdef UNLOCKED_HOME_MODE
      || TRUE
#endif
      ) {
#ifndef RADIO_AUTO_MODE
#if defined(RADIO_CONTROL_TYPE_DATALINK)
    return ModeUpdate(pprz_mode, pprz_mode_joystick);
#else
    return ModeUpdate(pprz_mode, 
PPRZ_MODE_OF_PULSE(fbw_state->channels[RADIO_MODE]));
#endif
#else.......

pprz_mode_joystick is a variable that i set from the joystick's xml file 
like this:

  <message class="ground" name="DL_SETTING" on_event="lower_hut_left">
   <field name="index" value="IndexOfSetting(pprz_mode_joystick)"/>
   <field name="value" value="1"/>
  </message>

  <message class="ground" name="DL_SETTING" on_event="lower_hut_right">
   <field name="index" value="IndexOfSetting(pprz_mode_joystick)"/>
   <field name="value" value="2"/>
  </message>

  <message class="ground" name="DL_SETTING" on_event="lower_hut_down">
   <field name="index" value="IndexOfSetting(pprz_mode_joystick)"/>
   <field name="value" value="0"/>
  </message>
