 Retreiving .c file from brickHello everyone,
I've been working on this project for a serious amount of time now, and today both my hard drives failed and I lost my programs, and they still need some debugging before I can use them. Is there anyway to get the .c files from the brick back to my PC ? please reply ASAP |

Re: Retreiving .c file from brick When you put a program on the NXT, it's compiled into a .rxe file and that's pretty much a one-way process. A lot of the original structure and coding is gone, and it's optimized as well. AFAIK there's no way this can be done; you'll just have to recreate the programs.
 EDIT: 6 minutes. How that for ASAP?  _________________ A.K.A. inxt-generation Self-proclaimed genius, and future world dominator. My Brickshelf Folder "Don't they teach recreational mathematics anymore?" - The Tenth Doctor Bow down to Nikola Tesla, King of the Geek Gods. |

Re: Retreiving .c file from brick NeXT-Generation is right, there's no way to get the .c programs from the NXT (since they aren't stored on the NXT).
If I were you I'd look into failed HDD data recovery. I also suggest that from now on, you always store those types of files in a place that get's backed up to remote servers (like DropBox, Google Drive, SkyDrive, etc.). _________________ Matt |

Re: Retreiving .c file from brick Can't you do a "download program" form the File Management Utility?

Re: Retreiving .c file from brick Yes, but it's the compiled .rxe file, which you can't edit.

Re: Retreiving .c file from brick
GitHub is another great site for your projects! A compiled file (.rxe) is machine code; translating it back is impossible (at least in a recognizable form). _________________ FTC Team 6424, the 'Oly Cow - Chief programmer.
