Hello everyone, I'm new to the mini2440 and I want to develop an application using C#. Do any of you have done anything with C#? All I want its a starting point, something like a program that could turn on a led or have any other interaction witht the hardware so I can learn how to set the coding enviroment (what to import, etc) in order to develop my application!!
C#, and all other .NET languages, are interpreted languages, so it depends on whether there's an interpreter for the arch/platform. I don't know if Mono .NET has an ARM interpreter yet, but CE does. For starters, you should be able to google development for Windows CE 5 to find out what tools MS offers (as their's are going to at least be complete) for CE/embedded development using C#. For the most part, it -should- just be a matter of running the application and designing it for the limited hardware and system specs of the FriendlyARM (vs a desktop) and using only parts of .NET which are available in the mobile .NET distributable.
.NET Micro Framework enable development in C# and Visual Studio 2008 for smal device without OS (Windows CE), ARM9 CPU is supportet, but what is support for mini2440 I don't know
I wanted to communicate with the GPIO ports from c# but some research made me see that i needed to create drivers in order to do that... still fighting with platform builder in order to create a new image without much luck!! :(
Hey! Try looking into .NET Micro Framework 4.0. It's supposed to have some improvements, as well as a new open-source licence. I'd say register for the beta programme, and good luck! Cheers! Rudraksh.
At www.arm9.net you have a DVD .iso image(2,5 GB) and there are tutorials from Microsft showing how to build an image of WinCE etc. and in one of them there is a "how to" make a simple program using Visual.. .NET (something) /tutorial name is different, but part in one of them shows the case that I am talking about/ I tried the same code in Visual Studio 2005 (code in C#) and it worked (conecting with mini2440 by ActiveSync using Visual Studio - attach device)
I have ordered a Mini2440 board and plan on coding in CE6... I note there are some files at www.arm9.net that are not posted here, so I have begun collecting them hoping they will provide what I need. In particular, I note the CE6 SDK is not posted on this site - I downloaded it from arm9 and reuploaded it on Mediafire for anyone who may need it... http://www.mediafire.com/file/zm5t1nwodtj/Mini2440-CE6-SDK.msi I appreciate any help others may provide regarding CE development (especially CE6 because I understand CE5 does not work well under Windows 7)...
Here is another resource I just located: http://staff.ustc.edu.cn/~shizhu/WinCE/winCE6%20Fundamentals.pdf
Hi, We have a reasonably complex project running on the mini2440 in CE totally written in C#. You will have to make sure that the firmware you use has the .Net Compact Framework installed (preferably v 3.5). We are talking to the hardware via this: http://www.esky-sh.com/bbs/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=163 and also via the serial ports. We are even running a SQL Compact database and it all works like a charm. It's surprisingly fast!
Hello, When installing Windows Embedded CE6 R2, it asking to select BSP Where do we found that for mini2440 ?
Does this Mini2440-CE6-SDK.msi works on Visual Studio 2005
I am a beginning with CE development in mini2440 with Visual Studio C#. Please, can anyone put the link of the www.arm9.net DVD .iso image that Adamczesku was comment?. Spinbot,please, can you put few steps to install and start a Visual Studio C# project for Windows CE 6.0 in mini2440?. Thanks
hi! i have done app for mini2440 in c# with WINCE 5.0 OS loaded in mni2440. I have done simple image processing application in C# VS 2005 that works fine in arm9 mini2440.

Hi Pratik Patel, after that you load your C# app in mini2440 with CE 5.0, if you power off the mini2440, can you found your application or you need to re-load the application in mini2440? how you copy in mini2440?
you can try this image processing tool for c# i am using currently. it can do many kinds of image processing,like flip, resize,crop,etc. and it can meet your requirements in making programme for mini2440 in c#.
try this one. http://www.rasteredge.com/how-to/csharp-imaging/imaging-processing/ using System; using RasterEdge.Imaging.Basic.Codec; using RasterEdge.Imaging.Basic.Core; using RasterEdge.Imaging.Basic; using RasterEdge.Imaging.Processing;
