Keil

Hi João,

Is possible to use Keil with netduino?

You can use Keil with Netduino.

If you want to compile the .NET Micro Framework firmware with the Keil MDK, that should be supported by the .NET Micro Framework Platform Kit. See instructions in the "C:\MicroFrameworkPK_v4_1\Documentation\RCLPort.chm" file.

If you want to write C++ code for your Netduino and compile with Keil, you can erase the Netduino's .NET Micro Framework firmware. Just connect a jumper wire between the 3.3V header and the ERASE pad (gold pad underneath digital pin 0). Then depower/repower and use Atmel SAM-BA to deploy your Keil-compiled code. You can use the Atmel SAM7X reference sample as a starting point.

In addition to what Chris Walker said, one of the recent updates of .NET Micro Framework v4.2 has introduced "Porting Kit Studio", an IDE for the porting kit contributed by Alexander Surkov and Igor Kiselev, which can (among other things) generate Keil project files. You can get it at CodePlex, changeset 11427 or newer. I have not tested that particular feature, though.

Hi Chris,

Can you please provide some more information about how can I use Atmel SAM-BA to deploy my Keil-compiled code?

I have downloaded and istalled the latest SAM-BA version - 2.10 I've read the tutorial and some other internet resources but I even failed the SAM-BA start up screen where you have to select a usb device and the model of your target device. It fails to connect. I'm not sure if I enter the usb device correctly - \usb\Netduino. It complains that it has failed to open a connection.
My development computer is running 64bit Windows 7 and in the Devices Manager I saw that the usb device where my netduino is connected has the name "Netduino". On the atmel site I saw that their SAM-BA supports 64bit Win7 so that shouldn't be a problem.

Another question - isn't it possible to build my Keil-compiled code in a way that I can deploy it on the Netduino using the MFDeploy tool?

Thanks very much in advance!

Hi Bobi,

To deploy a new bootloader or custom core firmware to your Netduino, you'll need to erase it first.

Here are some instructions

If you build a Keil-compiled .NET MF CLR then yes, you can certainly deploy that via MFDeploy.

Hi Chris, thanks a lot for your reply! I worked it out and it is awesome. I also tried the IAR environment and for the last couple of days I'm exploring one of the freeRTOS TCP/IP demos for AT91SAM7X. It creates a web server wich I maneged to get running on my netduino

Now I'm trying to figure out how it works. It uses the uIP TCP/IP stack and the dosumentation is not very clear... I'll be glad if you or someone else could share some experience about the uIP stack. I want to hadle HTTP POST requests in the server application. It seems to work fine with the GET requests... I don't see what's the difference. When I send a POST request in Fiddler I can see that the server returns http status code 504. Thanks very much in advance!
