Hey all

I'm going to transfer my app from RPi to UP. However, I see no info on the forum about accessing GPIO in UWP applications on the UP and VS specifically says the extension that enable gpio are intended for IoT only?


Since the pinout is the same as the RPI, hypothetically my app can just transfer over?

-OR NOT?-

    ok. so the answer is no. UWP apps using IoT gpio code (windows.devices.gpio)to operate pins don't work out of the box. Nor does the rx/tx set of pins communicate to my arduino as expected per the RPi install. (which operate with \or without gpio initialization)

    What Am i missing, special setting sin the bios to enable a different mode of the gpio pins? a special library to include for the UP board for C#?
