Morning!

I was having the same issue and was able to solve it by flashing the mainboard with the pre-release firmware found here...

Hope it works for you too!

Morning! Yup, I've got my little program working great, and I've even managed to bring in the other three modules included in the starter kit and have them functioning as well (at the same time!). Thanks heaps!

Yup, the prerelease mainboard firmware has eliminated the "cannot find entry point" issue. Thanks guys

Hey! At one point I tried that when I was having the original issue with the shieldbase.dll exception, but that was at 3AM and nothing seemed to work, heh. I'll give it a try right now.....

Hi rcflyair,



What socket is your Shield Base plugged into?

Did you upgrade your Shield Base firmware--or is it running the original firmware?

Morning!

I have the shield base on socket5 and sockets 6 thru 8 left open. The Button, RGBLed, and Pot are on 1,2, and 3...

I've made some progress and have the ShieldBase working now. I downloaded and flashed the ShieldBase with the firmware on your sticky post in this forum -- ShieldBase_ManualUpdate_4.2.0.1b1.zip (183.17K). The update seemed to go fine...

I'm now able to deploy and run my simple app!!! However, if I make any changes to the source and try to re-deploy and run the app, the execution halts with an error "Cannot find entry point". If I cycle the power on the NetduinoGo, then I'm able to deploy and run (until I make a change to the code). If I make no changes to the source, then I am able to repeatedly deploy and run the code....

Loading Deployment Assemblies.

Resolving.

The debugging target runtime is loading the application assemblies and starting execution.
Ready.

Cannot find any entrypoint!

Done.

So at least its functioning now as long as I cycle the power after each source code change. I've tried rebuilding, rebuilding all, deploying without debugging, etc., and still loose the entry point. Something about being freshly powered up seems to make it play nicely with VS.

I sure would like to get rid of this little quirk, but at least it working!
