"Soon" is finally here!

Correct VS2012 should be used by everyone unless that user is well experienced in netmf. But a note here, this latest release should work fine with vs2013 without any modifications…again for experienced users please.

@ andre.m -

Yes… I have installed the templates.

The regular NETMF templates work fine… and apps created on VS2012 work fine in VS2013 (NETMF not Gadgeteer).

I was just trying to test the Gadgeteer templates VS 2013… but seems that I am not experienced enough to make it work!

:smiley:

Thanks!

So… Totally excited, I update my grandproject, hit F5, and… The board hangs up and resets. From that moment on, it works, but without debugger. Alllright, what about attaching debugger to the already-running board? The exact moment I click “Attach”, my G400 locks up again!

The same behaviour on two PCs.

And then I realize “no more tinybooter updates” has yet to come. I update TinyBooter to 4.3.5, and it now works like a charm (and no, I do not use VMs).

:wall:

@ dulfe - Did you also install the new 2.43.1000 Gadgeteer release from a few days ago? It’s needed to enable Gadgeteer in VS2013 and VS14.

@ PiWi - It is possible something got damaged in the display. Do you have another you can try?

Exactly my thoughts. You can always go back to earlier sdk and try. I bet the lines will stay there.

You can always try the following if those lines persists :whistle:

go to minute 8:12 or click on the link below…

cut them out :slight_smile:

I was hoping for a new SDK to fix my Socket reliability problem, but I don’t see any mention of it in the R4 release notes. Does your phrase “concentrating on improving networking” mean someone is working on the Socket.Accept() lock-up problem? Is there an expected date when the problem will be fixed?

I don’t understand what you mean. Please explain.

@ John -

Yes I did, R4 (2014.4.0.0) was release yesterday and that is the one I installed, uninstalled and reinstalled.

Creating a new Gadgeteer project in VS 2013 does not work for me… but NETMF works fine.

I guess that’s why it is called a BETA! ::slight_smile:

@ dulfe - Could you post a screenshot of your add/remove programs window showing the versions and names of NETMF SDK, Gadgeteer Core, and our SDK?

@ John -

Here they are.

NETMF SDK 4.3 SDK-R2: 4.3.2
GHI SDK: 2014.4.0.0
Gadgeteer Core: 2.43.900.0

FYI, I tried opening a gadgeteer project created in VS2012 in VS2013 and it worked. I can even load the designer… but I cannot create new projects.

Thanks.

@ andre.m - I tried the thread abort wrapper and it does not work. When the thread is aborted at the timeout, I get a socket exception, and after that the client computer is not able to connect. Did you run this code yourself successfully?

@ andre.m - That did it!

Thank you so much!

@ TWIMC - I had all the latest tools installed for VS2013 to work and loaded the GHI 4.3.5.0 release just over it without removing anything before. And now I can start a gadgeteer project in VS2013, select the main board (here I choose for an CerbuinoBee) added a multicolor and connected it to socket 1, made a quick demo and all working, deploying, running …

yes, there are some hickups and some slow deployment and the usual usb device box in the project props to get the deploy working but still working …

Now, I don’t know if this should be but I’m positively amused that it did … :clap: :clap:

Q1: Is the Gadgeteer Model Explorer new, never noticed that before ??

Q2: Oh, VS 2013 sometime looses intellisense, restarting VS does solve it for me at the moment, is there maybe a more convenient way to get the Intellisense back ?


Found debugger!

@ andre.m - I might be wrong but I noticed that if you have a line not correct and have this red line underneath it, leave it there for some time while switching over to another app (browser or so, whatever) after some time when I come back the intellisense is gone. It happened already a couple of times … very strange …

Well, I have to learn to type my code correct, than … :whistle:

@ PiWi - Sometimes 3rd party addins/plugins messed things up in Visual Studio.

Oh, I think I’ve got some of those 3rd parties … NetMf, GHI, Netduino, etc. :wink:

These are fine. I was talking about productivity “helpers”.

I was just joking … maybe the infragistics suite I have might be doing that, I don’t know … that’s pretty much the only 3rd party I have :think:
