Hi,

 

I saw that the Netduino+ 2 has the STM32F4 Microcontroller. I have the STM32F4 Discovery Board, with Touchscreen, Board for Ethernet/SD-Card/Network and a tiny Camera. Can Microframework support all these things?

 

And when no, is there a Visual Studio Support for ARM Microcontroller like the STM32? Or on wich IDE is the Microframework programmed?

 

It would be cool when i can use VS, cause i like VS and autocomplete (Thats why im using AtmelStudio6 for AVR's ^^)

you can get a sam3 or sam4, its atmels cortex m4 (arm) and programm them via atmel studio.

arduino due is sam3 btw.

Yes, but now i have the STM32F4 Discovery Board ^^ (Already at home and tried a blinky sample via linux)

No direct support using visual studio, may well find a custom IDE using visual studio shell...

Well Visual Studio is only an IDE, it has nothing to do with the hardware you want to use. The right question is, does the .NetMF framework support natively the "STM32F4 Discovery" board. And the answer is yes since version 4.2. But the extension board (I use it' the STM32F4DIS-BB, right?) with the touchscreen pins, Ethernet/SD-Card and a tiny Camera, is not supported natively. And since that extension board may not use the right SPI bus pins that are compatible with the one used by NetMF (NetMF is only compatible with one of the 3 SPI/I2C controller of the STM32F4, it's a total stupid choice that the developer made), you may probably need to modifiy the porting kit for the STM32F4 and modify the default SPI bus used by NetMF. The other solution is to wire the 2 board with cables with the right pins.
