Hi everyone,

I am using the Netduino Plus with the latest firmware (4.2 RC5). I updated everything successfully and my developer experience is very smooth under Windows 7 (64bit).

Now I would like to develop under Windows 8 (RP/64bit) so I installed the same tool chain (VS2010 pro, .NET MF 4.2 and Netduino SDK 4.2 64bit).

I am having troubles debugging my program as every time I start the debug, I get the message:
The debugging target is not in an initialized state: rebooting...
I can see the board rebooting multiple times until I get the error:
The debugging target and the debugger engine failed to initialize because of unspecified device errors.
The debugger engine thread has terminated unexpectedly with error 'Could not reconnect to the debugging target after rebooting it.'.


My program is correctly deployed and runs as I can attach the debugger and see the outputs.

If someone had a similar issue I would really appreciate any advice to help fixing it. I understand Windows 8 is not yet supported (this is why I posted in the "Beta" forum).

Hi Elliatab, To echo what Supra said... .NET MF 4.3 will support VS 2012 and Windows 8. Once the first .NET MF 4.3 beta ships, let's retest this on the official release of Windows 8. If it still fails, then we can pull in a bug report to make sure it gets fixed for NETMF 4.3 RTM. [Microsoft's current NETMF SDK may be working under Windows 8 for some users...it's just one of those 'not yet implemented/tested' sorts of things, as I understand it.] BTW, welcome to the Netduino community! Chris

Thank you Supra and Chris for your replies. Just to complete my previous post, after rolling back to v4.1.0.6 on my Netduino Plus everything works fine (I kept the .NETMF 4.2 SDK and Netduino 4.2 SDK, just changed the target version). I'll really miss some new features of 4.2 but I guess I can wait until the next release. Chris, do you think we can expect to get 4.3 on the Netduino Plus or will we need to upgrade to Netduino Go? The only reason I did not purchase the Go is because I wanted the Ethernet support. By the way, I'm really happy with my experience with the netduino so far. Community support is great.

The only reason I did not purchase the Go is because I wanted the Ethernet support.

We'll start evaluating .NET 4.3 for Netduino and Netduino Plus as soon as the alpha bits ship. We expect to be able to fit .NET MF 4.3 on Netduino Plus; we'll know for sure once we get closer to its release.

We love both Netduino and Netduino Go equally...and we plan to continue supporting and updating both lines.

Chris
