GUI Windows Bootloader Available with code.

[jcddcjjcd]

I recently wanted to test out the dsPIC33FFJ128MC802 and when I started to like it I also wrote a Windows Bootloader to compliment what I was doing. It is written in C#.
I have posted it at http://www.microchip.com/forums/m893364.aspx

The details are all there and the C# Project as well as a slightly modified target side bootloader and a Breadboard demo project that I used to verify everything as well as try a couple of things on the dsPIC33F.

Which microchip bootloader that you refer to?

Ichan.
The Bootloader is for XC16 bootloaders on dsPIC33F devices. I have writen it to support the dsPIC33FJ128MC802 but writen the C# code to make it easy for C# coders to add devices or Families.
I made it so that it uses the Microchip supplied bootloader on the target side. This makes it easy to implement and test.
If you go to the link I supplies you will see a fuller description.

John.

Download it and check it briefly, it is serial bootloader - i prefer usb, but still good work and thanks.

Anyway what version of Visual Studio it is? Mine can not open it (still 2010).

I developed in .net years ago and I remembered when Visual Studio 2010 came out I tried it but I didn't like it so I downgraded to the 2008 edition but some of my projects weren't compatible so changing some value (I don't remember what was that I left VS in 2012, but I think it was some that is named ToolVersion or something like it ) in the .csproj file made it to work on 2008 without problems.
