Visual Studio 2015 has been released. No UWP yet.

Visual Studio 2015 RTM has been released and is available for download from MSDN if you have a subscription. The Community Edition is also available. The UWP (Win 10 Universal Apps) bits aren’t there yet though.

Win 10 IoT: Universal App – SQLite Database: Part 1 “About SQLite”

With no version of SQL Server and SQL Compact available for Windows 10 IoT and Windows 10 Phone, the suggested alternative is SQLite. Whilst early evaluations indicate it isn’t available for Win10 IoT Background and Console apps, it’s not too hard to use SQLite with a Windows 10 UWP (Universal) app. The app can be rebuilt without modification and using the exact same project content for the desktop, phone and IoT Windows 10 targets.

Windows 10 IoT: Windows Remote Arduino and Universal Windows Platform Apps: PWM Added


The project has been updated to include a LED dimmer as a PWM example.

The project source on Codeplex has been updated for this.

 

The additional tutorial PWM material is now included here:


Windows 10 IoT: Windows Remote Arduino and Universal Windows Platform Apps

A Windows 10 UWP app can be built upon the Remote-Wiring library such that the app can interact with an Arduino device running Firmata. An app, similar to the Windows Remote Arduino “Blinky” example, but with feature additions, is developed. It performs GPIO (output AND input) as well as some analog IO. . This app is functionally the same as Windows 8.1 version in the previous blog in this series. This blog works through the same material (ie repeats much of it) as the previous blog but from the Universal Windows Platform (UWP) context rather Windows 8.1 Universal App context. The target for the app is Win 10 desktop, Win 10 phone and Raspberry PI2 (running Win 10 IoT). The latter target is a "work-in-progress though".This blog can be read without reference to the previous blog.

Windows 8.1 IoT: Windows Remote Arduino and Universal apps

A Windows 8.1 Universal app can be built upon the Remote-Wiring library such that the app can interact with an Arduino device running Firmata. An app similar to the Windows Remote Arduino “Blinky” example, but with feature additions, is developed. It performs GPIO (output AND input) as well as some analog IO. The app runs on a Win 8.1 desktop, phone and RT Surface. The UI has some extra XAML “bells and whistles”.

Windows 10 IoT: GPIO Sample Apps

This blog is a Tutorial on how to implement Win 10 IoT Universal Apps that make use of Raspberry PI 2 (RPI2) General Purpose Input Output (GPIO) pins. This covers:

  • A simple interactive app
  • A simulated press button and LED
  • Outputting to a LED
  • Polling an input from a push button
  • Responding to a push button event

The interrupt (event driven) version addresses the InvokeRequired pattern in the XAML context. (Controls can't be updated directly from another thread).

The complete solutions are available (in source) on Codeplex at:

CEDriverWiz Professional Version 4.0 now available on Codeplex

An old gem that has stood the test of time. This implements the key functionality of s stream driver project (as OS subprojects with test apps) for Windows Embedded Compact and CE. Time for an major update:

Versions 3.0 and 3.5 were Standard Editions.  When a driver project was generated, there were a lot of place holders as comments (what is needed to be done) in the code that implement things such as shared memory, registry access, counting driver instances, as well as driver context and open context  buffers etc.
This Professional Version fully implements all of those features.

Windows 10 IoT: Back to the Future – Raspberry PI Take 2

I was an early adopter of Win 10 IoT with Raspberry PI 2 (RPI2) as well as Windows Remote Arduino. Whilst I was able to use my Windows 8.1 phone to control an Arduino device as per the latter technology, I did have some problems with some fine detail with the RPI2 technology. I have now had a second stab at Win 10 IoT with RPI2 with success. This blog discusses these issues.
