[Tinyos] Announce: tools for TinyOS programmers

[Lin Gu]

We constructed a web site of development tools for
TinyOS programmers. The http link is

http://www.cs.virginia.edu/~lg6e/tool/

The web site currrently has VDB (a debug utility)
and an event reply tool. 

VDB supports debug message (to UART), assertions, 
and write/read EEPROM (4KB internal EEPROM). 
It is designed to be easy-to-use -- just
include the source file then all the functions are
available. No component wiring is needed. Currently,
it only supports the AVR family processor, such as
in Mica2, XSM, and ExScal.

The event reply tool supports reply the events in a network 
at an accelerated or slowed-down speed. It helps in 
the analysis and debugging of WSN applications.

Contributions are welcomed! If you have developed 
some useful tools and want to include it in this web 
site, please let us know. Suggestions and comments 
will be appreciated.

Sincerely,

lin
