One other thing...if you're looking for alternatives to the Arduino IDE, you could try Visual Micro[^].
|
|
|
|
|
If you're going to be working with Arduino I would recommend Atmel Studio 6.2[^].
New version: WinHeist Version 2.1.0
There's a fine line between crazy and free spirited and it's usually a prescription.
I'm currently unsupervised, I know it freaks me out too but the possibilities are endless.

Thanks, I just did not want to dwell on this , but since you mentioned it
a. I cannot get VS 6.2 to keep my XP from crashing. I have been round with ATmel, VisualMICro and Wholetomato and still cannot find what is wrong with my setup.The last was reported by Windoze that i have something wrong with my video card. I have no other problems with my PC.
I just given up on this to ever run (again) on my current PC.
b.I do not know how to use VM by itself. I do not have ANY recent MS VC software.
c. I did load the funky zip file and there is no codeblocks.exe there.
I'll try the archive next .

I've not tried to run the newest Atmel Studio on XP so have not idea if it will work. If you can't get any of the IDE's to work on your machine you might have to do it the old fashion way with editor (Notepad++[^] is a good one) and gcc or equivalent compiler and invoke from command line.

Guess what - it is called ArduinoBuilder and my first impression is bad - there is no "Serial port" to click on - per instructions.
And the main window does not have Maximize button enabled.
But it will not do ARM / Due , so...
Thanks for getting me there, I really need to fix my crasher and use Atmel Visual Studio.
Thanks
Vaclav

Got an update email through with the usual what is happening on the companies I follow and the one for the position above was quite amusing;

If I'm reading that right, doesn't it also say that he accepted the job offer?
Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them.

That's a bit weird isn't it - categorising a best place to live according to profession? Makes me wonder what the best place to live is for Bee keepers, paramedics and window cleaners.

Well, if you're an Oil and Gas worker, I would imagine that a city that has no connection to the industry whatsoever, would rank poorly.

Maybe the opposite? As an Oil and Gas worker, maybe when you're on land you want to be as far as possible from anywhere that reminds you of a rig.

Very true.
We have guys who work here in the North Sea on a 2 weeks on, 2 weeks off rotation and they commute from Thailand.

I think it applies to professions (like the oil and gas industry) that are closely related to geographical locations.

Bee keepers: near hives.
Paramedics: as far from an ambulance station as physically possible.
Window cleaners: As far from the city as possible[^]

I guess warmer might be nice, but some combination of religious extremism, no booze and political instability might have reduced some rankings!

There must be some places in the sun you pipe fitters can try - Gulf of Mexico springs to mind - that have work without the risk of frostbite or hypothermia.
