Migrated RF24 codes to github

I've migrated my previous static codes to github's RF24 libs at https://github.com/stanleyseow/RF24
This is a fork from gnulnulf codes that uses dynamic rf24 RPi libraries...

This will be using the Arduino maniacbug's RF24 libraries in additional to the Raspberry Pi codes under a different folder...

Changes to take note from my initial instructions  :-

- CE is now using GPIO25
- CSN is now using GPIO8 (CE0)

Thanks to gnulnulf, you can specify the devices inside of the codes as below :-


RF24 radio("/dev/spidev0.0",8000000 , 25);

The files are located at RF24/librf24-rpi

Instructions on using github version for RPi :-

Using git, issue the following instructions :-

git clone https://github.com/gnulnulf/RF24.git
$ cd RF24
$ cd librf24-rpi/librf24
$ make                                <--- Compile the files
$ sudo make install             <--- This will install the librf24.so.1.0 into the shared libraries
$ sudo ldconfig -v | grep librf

     librf24.so.1 -> librf24.so.1.0

$ cd examples
$ make

To run the programs, type sudo ./rpi-hub or sudo ./scanner

*** You need sudo to access the spidev0.0 device
Instruction on Arduino :-

Got examples/RF24/rpi_hub_arduino

Compile and upload to the Arduino

Connect a small buzzer to digital Pin2

If everything is working, you should hear a short beep ...
