Waiting for debug commands...

The program '[2] Micro Framework application: Managed' has exited with code 0 (0x0).

Expected Results

Deploys.

Additional Info

Tried adding the enum manually, which seems to be the hack being used in the samples too. Unfortunately, it does not work 100% of the time.

This happens when deploying on Windows from VS 2015. On Mac, I receive a similar error but for a different type.

[therealjohn]

To workaround the problem, I've had to add this hack to each library project in the solution the main program is using too.

namespace System.Diagnostics
{
    public enum DebuggerBrowsableState
    {
        Never = 0,
        Collapsed = 2,
        RootHidden = 3
    }
}

This is a roslyn bug. :(

We're going to have to take a deeper look at this when we get VS2017 out the door. In the meantime:

Doc issue is here.

We've added it to a troubleshooting doc here. Doc isn't linked yet because it's not finished, but wanted to give you an update.

Also encountered on the Netduino 2 4.3.2.
Seems I can blink the LED but as soon as I add another c# file like Fabien's netduino helpers I get this issue and nothing happens.

Took me a minute to figure out but you’re a life saver! PS: Also bloody awesome to see another kiwi in the community. I’ve only just dusted off my Netduino again as I was too young to figure it out back in high school. Hope to get more acquainted with ya in the .Net MF community mate!

@therealjohn @KiwiBryn Thank you this saved me from pulling my hair out.
After 2 years of a project running it came time to do some upgrades, development machine I used to used was gone so had to set everything up again on Windows 10 and VS2019. Well lets say the USB drivers issues caused me to nearly throw out the Netduino and use another platform. Eventually got everything talking then hit this issue. If it wasn't for your quick fix I would have ditched the project as it was taking up too much of my time just to deploy the existing app.
