Add Arduino.IsConnected property.

Wed, 02 Jun 2010 02:22:33 -0000

This is just something that should have been there from the start. You could have figured out if it was connected by checking the Arduino.SerialPort.IsOpen property, but that's just too convoluted and assumes that the user has internal knowledge of our library. It makes more sense to expose that value as Arduino.IsConnected.

Arduino Open/Close naming

Wed, 02 Jun 2010 02:19:19 -0000

To better match with the concept of the PC connecting to the Arduino I'd like to rename the Open() and Close() methods to Connect() and Disconnect().

CA2213 : Microsoft.Usage

SerialListener.cs Line 164
CA2213 : Microsoft.Usage : 'SerialListener' contains field 'SerialListener._monitorTask' that is of IDisposable type: 'Task'. Change the Dispose method on 'SerialListener' to call Dispose or Close on this field.

CA2000 : Microsoft.Reliability

ArduinoFinder.cs Line 100
Warning 6
CA2000 : Microsoft.Reliability : In method 'ArduinoFinder.QueryPort(string)', call System.IDisposable.Dispose on object 'serialPort' before all references to it are out of scope.

CA1065 : Microsoft.Design

Tue, 01 Jun 2010 00:17:18 -0000

Arduino.cs Line 97
Warning 4 CA1065 : Microsoft.Design : 'Arduino.DigitalPinState.get()' creates an exception of type 'NotImplementedException', an exception type that should not be raised in a property. If this exception instance might be raised, use a different exception type, convert this property into a method, or change this property's logic so that it no longer raises an exception.

CA2002 : Microsoft.Reliability

Tue, 01 Jun 2010 00:16:00 -0000

Arduino.cs Line 347
Warning 3 CA2002 : Microsoft.Reliability : 'Arduino.Close()' locks on a reference of type 'SerialPort'. Replace this with a lock against an object with strong-identity.

CA1001 : Microsoft.Design

Tue, 01 Jun 2010 00:14:41 -0000

Arduino.cs Line 44
Warning 2
CA1001 : Microsoft.Design : Implement IDisposable on 'Arduino' because it creates members of the following IDisposable types: 'SerialListener'. If 'Arduino' has previously shipped, adding new members that implement IDisposable to this type is considered a breaking change to existing consumers.
