Are "Spin Examples" and "ASM Examples" the new "Application Notes"?

I browsed thru the Manual and I must say - the Parallax team has done a fantastic job at making it very detailed and fun to read.

Now, I have been looking in there to find the classic "BSII style App Notes" and could not really find any.

Is the plan to make the app notes available thur this forum under the "Examples" section? Or are there going be in a similar manual style merged w/ the current manual.

thanks

    Have you checked out this link?

    Dave, thanks for the url - I have seen/heard abt the prop object libs discussions - but have not actually been to this link. IT is very cool. Now, however, I do not see the circuit diagrams, etc for each of these examples - that one would generally see in the classic BSII App notes.

    Thanks again

    Not all source code requires anything special in terms of circuitry, but those that do often have the schematics listed right in the source code, since the Propeller Font supports schematic symbols.

    Chris, thanks.

    so, it appears that Parallax is going the route of publishing all "app notes", examples, etc on the site rather than via hardcopy format. Which is definitely fine (and probably better) as long as there's one place to go to to finding and conusming them.

    I had very bad experiences in the past w/ a different uc manufacturer's web site where stuff is all over the floor and very hard to navigate and digest.

    ALIBE,

    As some of the objects mature over time, I certainly don't see why an "app note" wouldn't be put together and made available.
