First off, many thanks for writing this driver so I don't have to push binary values around all the time! I'm trying to use this with VB.NET and a 74HC595N. It's just a simple test driving a few LEDs but somehow my pins seem to be reversed i.e. when I set pin 1 to high, the LED on Q7/QH lights up. Any idea where I'm going wrong?

mcdori02 has uploaded a patch.

Description:
This patch contains a hack that can be applied to SMTP_Client.cs that gets around the .NET Micro Framework null character limitation and allows one to authenticate using AUTH PLAIN / ESMTP. Admittedly, I know little about SMTP or ESMTP, but I can verify that this code allows me to send emails via www.gmx.com using AUTH PLAIN. I hope that it can be of use to someone.

Within the submitted archive I have included a mercurial generated .patch file as well as the full version of SMTP_Client.cs that successfully authenticates on my local machine using a Netduino Plus 4.2.0.1 and .NET MF 4.2. I extended the existing error handling and did my best not to break the no authentication and AUTH LOGIN implementations, but I have no way to test if I was successful.

These files also contain a fix for a bug where the SMTP_Client constructor throws an error because my hardware name, "Netduino" doesn't contain a '.' character. I submitted a separate patch for this error on May 8 2013.

Created Issue: SMTP_Client Constructor Error Parsing Hardware Provider [1259]

mcdori02 — Thu, 09 May 2013 02:35:08 GMT

Experienced on my Netduino Plus running firmware 4.2.0.1 on .NET MF 4.2.

The call to:
```
Tools.HardwareProvider.ToString()
```
In the SMTP_Client constructor returns "Netduino" for me. The SMTP_Client constructor goes on to try to parse a '.' character out of it. Since "Netduino" doesn't contain a dot, I get an ArgumentOutOfRangeException on the next line when the result of the parse is used.

I don't know about the ramifications for other .NET MF devices, but this works great if I reduce all three lines to:
```
this._LocalHostname = Tools.HardwareProvider.ToString();
```

i have got skylab skm53 module and i try to connect to netduino plus 2 .
i connect Rx to d1 and Tx to d0 and 5v and gnd and then used your sample code .
but always i gor slatitude = 8960.0000,N
and slongitude = 00000.0000,E
saltitude = 137.0,M
and fix = false and sat=0
i have tried in home and outdoor and nothing change.
i appreciate any help

Created Issue: Change the name of the Installation Binary [1179]

"Setup.exe" is a (far too) common name for installers and can lead to confusion in the user's download folder. I suggest changing the binary's name to "NetMF Toolbox Setup.exe"

SVN produced patch for DS1307 crash.

Created Issue: DS1307 crash [1126]

chuckhays — Wed, 13 Mar 2013 02:42:27 GMT

The GetTime() method of DS1307 doesn't convert the values with a minimum string length, leading to an exception from Int.Parse due to the empty string, the code should probably be something like this:

return new DateTime(
second: int.Parse(Tools.Dec2Hex(ReadBuffer[0], 1)),
minute: int.Parse(Tools.Dec2Hex(ReadBuffer[1], 1)),
hour: int.Parse(Tools.Dec2Hex(ReadBuffer[2], 1)),
day: int.Parse(Tools.Dec2Hex(ReadBuffer[4], 1)),
month: int.Parse(Tools.Dec2Hex(ReadBuffer[5], 1)),
year: int.Parse(Tools.Dec2Hex(ReadBuffer[6], 1)) + 2000
);

Available classes

The classes can be devided in a few sections:

Core classes
- Main core (Toolbox.NETMF.Core.dll)
- Hardware Core (Toolbox.NETMF.Hardware.Core.dll)
- Networking Core (Toolbox.NETMF.NET.Core.dll)
Component classes
- Hardware drivers (Toolbox.NETMF.Hardware.*.dll)
- Networking classes (Toolbox.NETMF.NET.*.dll)

If you need a hardware driver, you'll also need the Hardware Core and Main Core.
If you need a networking class, you'll also need the Networking Core and Main Core.

Created Issue: Need to be able to add additional header with POST and need to be able to PUT [1078]

Frogmore — Sun, 13 Jan 2013 02:29:22 GMT

In order to send data to ThingSpeak the API documentation says you need to send an "X-THINGSPEAKAPIKEY" header. In order to send data to SmartEnergyGroups you need to send and HTTP PUT (a POST does not work).

Since the difference between POST and PUT is just the verb used in the first header, I added a new method to do this. I also added an optional Header parameter to allow the addition of a single header to the POST or PUT, which works for me.
