Getting Started

This is the second beta release of WPILib for the 2022 season. This requires the 2022 v2.x roboRIO image (either roboRIO 1 or roboRIO 2).

Check out what's new for 2022 and jump directly to the WPILib installation guide.

A list of known issues with this release can be found here and in Beta 2, the following are broken:

• On-robot debugging does not work (sim debug works) (wpilibsuite/vscode-wpilib#471)
• The roboRIO JDK artifact is not included in the installer. It will be necessary to build your project once while connected to the internet prior to deploying (wpilibsuite/WPILibInstaller-Avalonia#198)

This release has breaking changes to the robot template from beta 1. It will be necessary to either re-import your project from 2021 or create a new robot project and copy your beta 1 code into it.

Major changes from Beta 1:

• Fixed RoboRIO 2 deployment version checking; requires roboRIO image v2.3 (workaround still required for v2.2)
• Added back deployment error messages (RoboRIO not found)
• Fixed Romi support
• Fixed Java simulation without Visual Studio installed
• Fixed deployment of src/main/deploy
• Gradle updated to 7.2
• Visual Studio Code has been updated to 1.62.0
• Fixed Linux desktop icon permissions
• Fix "chcp not found" warning message seen when running simulation on Windows
• Shuffleboard: camera server streams not appearing issue from 2021 has been fixed

If you're starting from a 2021 robot project, you will need to import it to create a 2022 project. The import process is particularly important for 2022, as it will try to make a number of automated corrections for the various breaking package moves that happened in 2022.
