VB.net and the Spinneret

electromanj

Hello. I have done a few projects with .net and the Propeller, and now that I am getting started with the Spinneret I was wondering how one would go about using a .net program with the Spinneret. I have gone through Mike g's tutorial (thanks Mike), and now I'm wondering if I would be able to use a .net application like below to control the Led? Any ideas where to get started?

Thanks.

It's pretty simple just an HTTP GET.

Here's what I have so far. Turns the led on and off , and receives the state. I used Visual Basic 2010 Express.

Public Class Form1

   

    Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)

    End Sub

   

   
    Private Sub Button2_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click
        Dim request As System.Net.HttpWebRequest = System.Net.HttpWebRequest.Create("http://192.168.1.79:8080/led/23/off")
        Dim response As System.Net.HttpWebResponse = request.GetResponse()

        Dim sr As System.IO.StreamReader = New System.IO.StreamReader(response.GetResponseStream())

        Dim sourcecode As String = sr.ReadToEnd()

        TextBox1.Text = sourcecode
        TextBox1.BackColor = Color.White
    End Sub

   
    Private Sub onbutton_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles onbutton.Click
        Dim request As System.Net.HttpWebRequest = System.Net.HttpWebRequest.Create("http://192.168.1.79:8080/led/23/on")
        Dim response As System.Net.HttpWebResponse = request.GetResponse()

        Dim sr As System.IO.StreamReader = New System.IO.StreamReader(response.GetResponseStream())

        Dim sourcecode As String = sr.ReadToEnd()

        TextBox1.Text = sourcecode
        TextBox1.BackColor = Color.Orange

Really awesome Travis! I wish I had the brain cells left to figure that stuff out!

I've been building Browser based gadgets for communicating with the Spinneret/WizNet.

Do folks want to see application based templates and gadgets?
