[Spiked]

I'm lazy, I hate typing more than I have to. As a result, I have adapted a method that avoids having to add 'static' to every function and variable, and follows the Arduino model a little closer. I insert the following code in just about every project I start.

 

I hope this prevents some carpel tunnel syndrome for someone;

namespace Junk2
{
    public class Program
    {
        bool instanceDone = false;
        DateTime lastTick;
        EncodedMotor M0;

        public static void Main()
        {
            var p = new Program();
            p.Setup();
            while (!p.instanceDone)
                p.Loop();
        }

        void Setup()
        {
            // do initialize things here

            // pwm, phA, phB, reversed
            M0 = new EncodedMotor(PWMChannels.PWM_PIN_D5, Pins.GPIO_PIN_D9, Pins.GPIO_PIN_D10, true);
 
            lastTick = DateTime.Now;
        }

        void Loop()
        {
            DateTime thisTick = DateTime.Now;
            TimeSpan dt = thisTick - lastTick;

            //.... more stuff

            Thread.Sleep(1000 / 20); // update N times per sec
            lastTick = thisTick;
        }
    }
}
