| Its totally not like Windows CE or 95! >Wait for a few minutes and the board will automatically restart oh, 2015 and M$ still wants me to reboot. At least its only once after install and thats it, right? > If Visual Studio cannot connect to your Windows IoT Core device, try rebooting the device. oh. Not restart the debugger, just reboot, you know, turn it off and on again like Apu told you over the phone. After all you are just some random idiot, not a person trying to develop on this platform. >familiar tools, including sfpcopy.exe when I think of copying I think sfp! wait what? Why would I be familiar with a copy utility which name doesnt start with word "copy", and is not even shipped standard on Windows platforms (at least not on Win7/Win8/8.1)? Can I at least SSH to the box? or telnet? anything standard and open? >Enter-PsSession no?, oh :(, and apparently to be an admin on your Pee you need to start powershell in admin mode on your client computer too, why? At least its painless and reliable >Note: there is a known issue with PS that can cause a StackOverflowException on the PS client machine. To work around this type the following line client as in my laptop where I just started powershell as an admin? splendid! >Commonly used utilities grep? cat? no :( >notice how we leverage the new WinRT classes in the Windows.Devices.Gpio namespace wasnt WinRT send to the farm with the rest of stupid ideas M$ had recently? btw headless led blinking sample has logo and a splash screen :)))) but its still less painful to look at than the Erlang one from few days ago :) All in all Im impressed. It looks slick and well put together, and Im sure it looks straightforward and simple for the winapi folks. I can imagine some very enthusiastic young people working on it at Redmont (people that never touched Linux/unix and are slowly reimplementing it? :P). Its not bad, +1 from me. |
WinRT and Windows RT are two separate things. WinRT is the runtime that Windows Store apps run on. Of course, you'd know that if you spent 15 seconds googling the answer instead of grasping for more things to complain about.
