I think link on site should be updated to QFE2, because current sources doesn't compile with QFE1

i'm use this line:

msbuild solutions\NetduinoPlus\dotnetmf.proj /p:flavor=release;tcp_ip_stack=lwip /t:rebuild

I'm installed RVDS4.1, downloaded QFE2 .NET MF sources, downloaeded netduino sources from netduino.com/downloads, and oh god! this compiles!

Downloaded QFE1, with it this have many compile errors like overload functions and not existing prj files

This means the resulting binary is too big to fit into the reserved flash area. It is strange, because RVDS usually produces the smallest code and there should be no problems; also Secret Labs uses RVDS for the official firmware build. I am not sure the published Netduino firmware source code is based on the latest QFE2 PK version, it could be for the earlier QFE1.

Alternatively, you can adjust the flash memory layout manually, search the forum for "blockrange".

Is it possible to take latest firmware sources for QFE2?

Problem solved

i tried setenv_rvds 4.0 "D:\rvds" but with this parameters compilation give me ocean of errors. It seems perl needed? o_O

4.0 is officially supported, 4.1 should work (with the same setenv*.cmd as for 4.0). You need only ARM compiler & linker to compile the firmware, no IDE or debugger is necessary (until you need it, of course).

I installed all to D:\rvds, which parameters must be used with setenv_rvds for correct compuling?

If you mean RVDS, then yes.

A full version of RVDS is needed?
4.0 is ok?

You'd need ARM cross-compiler to compile the firmware, such as ARM RVDS, Keil MDK or GCC (which requires certain source code modifications).

ARM Compiler toolchain 4.1 is okay?

Copy the "BytesToRead" value to a local var immediately as the very first op in the event handler. That will guarantee that the actual bytes read is the count that you cached. Otherwise, since the high baud-rate, you could define a byte-array with less rooms than necessary.
Please, bear in mind that during the normal C# flow, there are bytes filling up the underlying UART buffer.
Cheers

This works! Big thanks!

Hello, i trying to compile Netduino Plus firmware and getting some errors. Google take me no results about this errors.

My steps:
1. Downloaded QFE2 PK and extracted this to D:\MicroFrameworkPK_v4_2
2. Downloaded netduino firmware v4.2.0 source from netduino.com/downloads and extracted there with overwrite
3. Executed setenv_vs.bat with success
4. Execute this command:

D:\MicroFrameworkPK_v4_2\Solutions\NetduinoPlus>msbuild dotnetmf.proj /p:flavor=release;tcp_ip_stack=lwip /t:rebuild

5. Result:

Where i'm wrong?

Hm, i did as you say and get this:

Modem work on 115200 speed. If i reduce delay before read i have ArgumentOutOfRangeException

private void com1_DataReceived(object sender, SerialDataReceivedEventArgs e)
        {
            Thread.Sleep(50);
            if (serialPort.BytesToRead > 0)
            {
                byte[] buffer = new byte[serialPort.BytesToRead];
                serialPort.Read(buffer, 0, serialPort.BytesToRead);
                string line = Encoding.UTF8.GetString(buffer);
                Debug.Print("Modem: " + line);

if more this receive only 512 bytes...

Hi all! I connect Telit modem with my Netduino Plus over UART and use Network Survey command, that executes some time and send result to UART, but my netduino can't receive more than 512 bytes . Is it possible increase this value? It's critical function and i don't know what to do...

Hello Chris! Can you tell me SAM7X devboard name?

Hello Chris, i've created my own board based on Netduino with JTAG and other functions (more gpio and other). So I'm interested in a solution for this processor that I could create slot in layout for it.

Hello, i want to debug my custom firmware for Netduino Plus. I'm heared i should use a JTAG for debugging native code. Which device is best used to connect to the JTAG and work with him? Best regards, Jeka.

Why not possible? You can deploy and debug your software via UART and use USB to communicate with PC, but you need install 4.2 RC4 firmware and switch deploy/debug to UART via special version of MFDeploy. All this you can find in beta firmware section of forum. But, you need more experience to use this method of communication, and need additional hardware and external power to enable USB connection when Netduino loaded your software.

On codeplex allow QFE1 version of RTM 4.2 of SDK. Can i use it? Or i should use only 4.2 RTM?

Oh, cool! Thanks! =)

No, i mean, can i simultaneously develop 4.1 board and 4.2 board with .NET MF 4.2 SDK? I have two board with 4.2 and 4.1

Hi Ahmed,

The RC4 build has 48KB of flash for your application (not 64KB like .NET MF 4.1 provides).

We're working to increase the amount of flash available for applications...NETMF 4.2 grew a bit

Chris

Hi Chris, you are not answered on my question, i think you are just missed it. =(

Hello, i have two boards. I want flash one of them to 4.2 RC4. For develop with 4.2 version i need .NET MF 4.2 SDK.
If i install 4.2 SDK i need remove 4.1 SDK. Can i resume develop for board with 4.1 version of .NET MF?
