Is there a beta available yet? I'm eager to use VS2012.

You can use 4.1/4.2 with Visual Studio 2012

I can confirm this working. After installing the MF 4.3 SDK, Visual Studio 2012 shows all of the .NET Micro Framework versions, so it must include the multi-targeting pack all the way back to 4.2 and 4.1.

I was also able to open my old Netduino project and build+deploy+debug with no problem.

The only thing missing are the Netduino-specific project templates, which you can copy from MyDocuments\Visual Studio 2010\Templates\ProjectTemplates to MyDocuments\Visual Studio 2012\Templates\ProjectTemplates.

Thanks for the confirmation, guys - turns out another problem was causing my inability to use vs2012 with 4.2.  It's working for me.

 

Note: in order to setup a new dev environment, you need to install vs2010 - at least temporarily - because the installer for the .Net Micro Framework SDK 4.2 requires it. Bleh.   Thanks alot Microsoft!

You could also install the 4.3 SDK which includes 4.2 and 4.1 assemblies, without need for VS2010 :)

Heh - yeah I realized that about 5 minutes after I wrote it.  Tried to delete my post, so as not to lead anyone down the wrong path but I couldn't figure out how to do that...

Hi eried, VS2012 isn't supported by the NETMF 4.2 or Netduino 4.2 SDKs. We're working on an update for NETMF 4.3 (and therefore VS2012), but for now you'll want to use VS2010. You can use VS2012 if you'd like with the NETMF 4.3 SDK...but you'd be giving up the application templates that come with the Netduino SDK. And you'll need to manually install the Netduino drivers. Welcome to the Netduino community, Chris

OK Thanks!

 

Hahaha "welcome" sounds like some kind of joke after the bad news :D

 

You have some expected date of release for the new version? I don't want to install VS2010 :/

No date quite yet, but here's a manual workaround for you:

Drivers
1. UniExtract the Netduino SDK installer.
2. Pull out the drivers. This will let you install the Netduino drivers without installing the SDK.
3. Grab the Netduino 4.2 assemblies; you'll use these in your projects.

Creating an application
1. In VS2012, create a ".NET Micro Framework Console Application" (from the NETMF 4.3 SDK)
2. Add "SecretLabs.NETMF.Hardware.Netduino.dll", "System.dll", and "Microsoft.SPOT.Hardware.dll" to your project.
3. Add "using SecretLabs.NETMF.Hardware.Netduino;" to the top of your application.

This will effectively create a Netduino Plus 2 application for you.

I don't have an ETA on a 4.3/VS2012 SDK, but I'll post most once it's ready for beta testing.

Chris

Thanks Chris! Will do that

 

EDIT: Working perfect.

 

I copied the templates to

D:DocumentsVisual Studio 2012TemplatesProjectTemplatesVisual C#Micro Framework

 

and edited the zip to point to may references (ugly hardcoded for now):

 

 

<Reference Include="SecretLabs.NETMF.Hardware"><HintPath>C:Program FilesSecret LabsNetduino SDKAssembliesv4.1SecretLabs.NETMF.Hardware.dll</HintPath></Reference><Reference Include="SecretLabs.NETMF.Hardware.Netduino"><HintPath>C:Program FilesSecret LabsNetduino SDKAssembliesv4.1SecretLabs.NETMF.Hardware.Netduino.dll</HintPath></Reference>
