We will need to distribute this application with LEGO kits in the summer, and I had some questions about how to send along the NXTToolkit.If I build an installer in LabVIEW, will it contain the NXTToolkit by default? Do I need to have the users install the NXTToolkit and patches directly? I am concerned about the whole Mass Compile thing. Can I send along a compiled NXTToolkit? If so, does anybody know how to do it?
If you build an application with LabVIEW, it will create a single EXE that contains the code for the application. The required parts of the NXT toolkit will be built in. However, the EXE will not include the driver to communicate with the NXT device. That needs to be installed separately. The installer for the driver is available from the LEGO site (as Mindstorms Driver v1.02)
