    33This is a description of the development environment used by one of the mentors (Mr. Alan Borgwardt) for initial PiBot development / prototyping in Fall 2016.
    44
    5 - Windows 10
    6 - Eclipse Mars 2 (eclipse-java-mars-2)
    7 - JDK 8 (jdk-8u102-windows)
    8 - Bonjour (used for Pi Zero Ethernet-over-USB support)
    9 - Pi4J (pi4j-1.1.zip)
    10     http://pi4j.com/install.html
    11         - Read the first paragraph (re: Pi .vs. dev host installation)
    12         - Follow the 'download' link in the first paragraph
    13         - Download pi4j-1.1.zip
    14         - Extract zip
    15         - Add jar files from extracted lib folder to Eclipse project

    1620    NOTE: This is for development workstation. Pi Zero's Raspian Jessie already has PI4J included, which, I think, is what gets used when running on Pi Zero. (Although, launching on Pi Zero from Windows/Eclipse with Pi Plugin *may* use the jars from the Eclipse project???)

    58 Create an LSB style init script for launching a PiBot autonomous startup app. I copied rc.local as a starting point and modified it to run my desired PiBot app as follows:
    59 sudo cp /etc/init.d/rc.local /etc/init.d/pibot_auto
    60 sudo vi /etc/init.d/pibot_auto
    61 Revise the header block to describe PiBot autonomous app
    62 Revise the do_start() to launch the PiBot autonomous app
    63 Save and exit editor
    64 Test/debug the script until it works as desired using these commands:
    65 sudo /etc/init.d/pibot_auto start
    66 sudo /etc/init.d/pibot_auto stop
    67 sudo /etc/init.d/pibot_auto restart
    68 When working as desired, register script to run at startup/shutdown:
    69 sudo update-rc.d pibot_auto defaults
    70 If the script is changed (edited) after registering, a ‘reload’ may be necessary as follows:
    71 sudo systemctl daemon-reload
    72 To unregister the script (i.e., stop it from running at startup/shutdown):
    73 sudo update-rc.d -f pibot_auto remove
