In Topic: "Preparing to deploy..." takes ages

if the board is locking/crashing then you wont be able to deploy because its too busy doing whatever is causing it to lock ... you should reboot and deploy before it gets a chance to lock up again, you may need to hold the reset button down for a few seconds to give you that little bit longer to deploy the update ... or failing that wipe it and re-flash.

That's very interesting. I don't suppose you'd consider sharing your auto-debug-listen tool? These days I power cycle the N+without even thinking about it and that does the trick for deployment, but I have noticed that some of my code only works when not being watched by the debugger, which tells me you're on to something. This problem is the proper domain of the VS team, but I doubt I'll live long enough to see them fix it so I'm very keen to use something else to listen to Debug output.


I can indeed ... its nothing special and in VB. You could just use MFDeploy straight off, although you will have to go through the process of choosing USB and connecting each time which is why i ended up making this exe which just does it on load. There's some bits in there I was using to test http and tcp/ip function on the device also and various code commented out I think from exploring automated deployment from the exe aswell ... but you should be able to take what you need, its been a while since ive looked at this but if I recall it was only a few lines of code using the MFDeployEngine reference that you actually need. http://tagbak.net/jlmf.winui.rar

hth and let me know any probs.

In Topic: USB Host Shield

19 February 2012 - 01:34 AM

ah that is annoying, i had figured it was a case of stacking it on top and talking over SPI pins ... however thinking about it now presumably the firmware is going to need a HID driver then ... what a headache .... how easy is porting the arduino one going to be? Are there any Netduino compatible shields?

heh that might help ... http://proto-pic.co....sb-host-shield/

In Topic: GainSpan module .... Its too small!

31 January 2012 - 03:33 PM

I could be wrong but I'm coming to the conclusion nothing exists to cater for something this small and I'm not sure a home made PCB is going to cope either ... if I'm reading the data sheet correctly its 0.91mm pads with 0.36mm pitch I reckon its either manufacture a PCB or go all blue peter and break out the super glue.
