RE: Re: Digi's treatment of Rabbit products

Hi Tom,

                What about SNMP V3 (not very old SNMP V1)? Why it is not
still implemented?

 

Thanks

Jesus

Steve,

 

I think you need to check your timeline.  

 

Digi bought Rabbit/Z-World over 10 years ago in May 2005:
http://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20050526005706/en/Digi-International-A
cquires-Rabbit-Semiconductor-Highly-Complementary

 

The first core modules using the Rabbit 4000 weren't released until 2006
(http://www.soccentral.com/results.asp?CatID=552
<http://www.soccentral.com/results.asp?CatID=552&EntryID=18658>
&EntryID=18658), so all of the Rabbit 4000, 5000 and 6000 products, and
every single version of Dynamic C 10 were released when Rabbit was part of
Digi.  That's a far cry from "no new modules" and "no compiler updates".

 

I worked for Digi from 2008 to 2014, and was there for many compiler updates
and product releases in that time.  When I started in January 2008, I was
working on Dynamic C 10.40 and the BL4S1xx line of single-board computers.
In 2007 I had worked on the RCM4200 product as a consultant.  While an
employee, I even recall updated Rabbit 3000 core modules getting released.
I was part of a huge effort to add better ANSI C support around Dynamic C
10.64.

 

I'm not sure of release dates for the various Dynamic C 9 versions, but it's
likely some of the later versions (9.52 and 9.62?) came out after May of
2005.

 

I'm consulting for Digi again, on Rabbit products, and you can see the
results up on GitHub.  I have been fixing bugs, and even working on
supporting TLS 1.2 in Dynamic C 10.

Dynamic C 10: https://github.com/digidotcom/DCRabbit_10
<https://github.com/%20digidotcom/DCRabbit_10> 

 

If there are things you want to see happen with the Rabbit products, let me
know and I'll push it up the chain.

 

-Tom

done nothing with the product line. No new modules, no compiler updates, no
bug fixes,

and very little response to tech support queries. I think they were jus t
getting rid of the

competition when they bought the product line.
