This function should be used if/when WPILib is updated

#include "WPILib.h"
#include "ThunderDrive.h"
#include "DashboardDataFormat.h"
#include "AnalogModule.h"
#include "DigitalModule.h"
#include "iomap.h"


	//This function requires you to modify WPIlib/DigitalModule.h and
	//		make m_fpgaDIO a public member instead of private.  The reason is
	//		that there are no publicly accessible ways of reading the value of
	//		a digital output or the output enables.  Exposing m_fpgaDIO lets you use
	//		the ChipObject functions readDI, readDO, and readOutputEnable.  The bitmasking
	//		of the DI and DO vectors versus the OE ensure that DIO's that are not inputs are
	//		not falsely set because those specific bits are actually outputs, and vice versa.
	//		
	//		The same lack of ability to get() the status of the relayFWD and relayREV bits 
	//		requires exposing m_fpgaDIO to use the readSlowValue_Relay[Fwd|Rev] function
void UpdateDashboard(void)
