Sweet! And we tentatively had this for 7 months. I can't wait for then to have already happened!

I believe that this is a NETMF team + community contribution feature for NETMF 4.3.

I recently moved to 4.2 RTM to take advantage of the reduced networking byte-code size which I read about in a forum post on here somewhere. Where does general information about new microframework footprint sizes come from?

Hi Nobby,

I recently moved to 4.2 RTM to take advantage of the reduced networking byte-code size which I read about in a forum post on here somewhere. Where does general information about new microframework footprint sizes come from?

Due to the various ways that firmware can be compiled, the best place to get info on footprint size is probably here on the forums.

Board manufacturers can include the managed code assemblies for various features in the TinyCLR portion of their firmware, or they can leave these assemblies out. If the assemblies are left out, then they take away room from your application code space when you use them...deployed with your app.

Generally, NETMF 4.2 is bigger than NETMF 4.1. We had left about 24KB of buffer space in the NETMF 4.1 image to allow for expansion...and we're using almost all of that to support the new features.

The end result for your application is that you have the same amount of available codespace as before, gained new features and bugfixes, and end up with more RAM for your application.

OneWire is not officially supported on the gen1 boards, but we did make a special 4.1 build with CW2's OneWire support libraries.  If you need OneWire support on your board, I would recommend sticking with that custom build with the extra feature.

 

The gen2 boards have OneWire support built into the core firmware, and lots of extra flash so that we can continue updating them with new firmware releases.
