How do I use the TinyOS Java tool chain from within a Matlab session?
It is often easier to use an existing Java tool with TinyOS than to rewrite it in Matlab. For example, one would like to use tools for Deluge, trickle, etc to inject packets reliably. As an example, we could start the Java Oscilloscope tool directly from Matlab instead of using the matlab version that we examined in the tutorial: net.tinyos.oscope.oscilloscope.main({‘125’}) This starts the oscilloscope application, and you should see the java gui open and connect to your serial forwarder. The following table provides an overview of the Matlab syntax for using Java. It is essentially the same as Java syntax except that there is no “new” operator and functions with no arguments do not terminate with empty parenthesis “( )”. Type these commands into your Matlab command window to see what they do.
