What have you done with PIC USB?

[T.Jackson]

bruce!

yeah.. that is great... now if only i was smart enough to convert the vb6 files to .net...

soon i will start a new thread about that.. i figured out most of the errors.. there is just 1 or 2 left... they may be hard ones though...


I definiately will contribute something soon.. I made a 'gestural controller' project using tilt switches, a hacked mouse, a BS2, RS232 and VB6.

i want to get this to be a USB pic and .net and then i will share it. ive slowly been working that direction.. an article\tutorial about the BS2 portion is almost done... should be up in a few days

.net might not be able to handle those API calls. Does .net have support for calls from the gdi32 library, like Bitblt? I heard it doesn’t! I submitted an NES emulator to Planet Source code a while back, written in VB5, got some feedback from someone who attempted to port it to .net Apparently, it didn't turn out too well, resulting in nothing but compile errors. Can't run emulator in IDE - too slow.

Trent,

I havent worked on it in a few week (building a CNC machine right now), but, i do remember getting very close to a working easyHID example in .net.

The api stuff seemed fine, the problem was a slight change in the syntax of some portion of the code i do not understand!

someday i may be begging for more help here, with more specifics! in the meantime, just try and convert the USBDemo code to .net.. It ALMOST works!

Hi,

I don't pretend to know a great deal about .net, not even for a millisecond. I don't have it and have never used it...

My suggestion: Post the project on Planet Source Code in both the VB and .net Worlds. Good chance you'll get feedback from someone who might be able to help.
