Example - Integrating a Baseball Trajectory Code as a new PRODAS module

This tutorial will examine the integration of a simple trajectory code to analyze the flight of a baseball.

The program has been integrated and all the files are supplied for you to review and modify if you would like. This tutorial will walk you through all of the planning and building of this project so that you will be ready to integrate your own programs. Included is

a PRODAS model of a baseball,..\ProjectileData\Examples\SDK\BaseballModel_start.pr3
the new data defined for the program
- stored in file BaseballTrajectory.AND
- built, viewed and edited with the data manager
the definition of the analysis interface
- stored in file BaseballTrajectory.ANL
- built, viewed and edited with the analysis manager
the definition of the form that the program runs from
- stored in file BaseballTrajectory.ANF
- built, viewed and edited with the form manager
the FORTRAN code stored in ..\Dev\BaseballTrajectory
and even the FORTRAN executable, BaseballTrajectory.exe

The reason that we are giving you the completed project is that it would be too repetitive to go over every keystroke to generate these files and the method would get lost in the details.

This tutorial emphasizes the required code which has previously been mentioned is minimal.
