Examples for both versions

I installed Arduino 1.5x with Atmel Studio and the pro version of Visual Micro. 

When I watch the videos on UTube, they are using arduino 1.0 and they have a lot more examples in the micro explorer. I can't seem to install both versions, so how do I get the examples from 1.0?

Thanks
Andy

Hi Andy,

In terms of installing another arduino ide version just grab the zip instead of the installer from the arduino.cc web site. The installer configured the usb drivers and does little else. So after installing 1.5 you can grab any zip then it is easy to register the new ide path under 1.0.x in Visual Micro?

Some examples are in different locations for 1.5 and it sounds like we need to take a look for the next release at finding them all. No matter they are easy to find using windows explorer ...

1) Look under [arduinoide]/examples
2) Libraries are contained in 
  a) [arduinoide]/libraries 
  b) [arduinoide]/hardware/arduino/avr/libraries
  c) custom library examples: [mydcouments]/arduino/libraries

nb: Each library should contain a sub folder called examples

I hope this makes sense?

Thanks

Downloaded the Zip file and installed 1.0 and have more libraries now, not sure if there is more examples. Whats interesting is that both the 1.0 and the 1.5x show the same things now.

How do you load more libraries and examples and where would I find more to download?

Hi Andy,

Visual Micro is just a plugin that reads whatever you have installed on your pc within the supported Arduino locations.

I expect the video was done with lots of different open source Arduino libraries installed. We don't produce any just work with whatever you decide to download and use.

When you download Arduino libraries they normally come with a few examples of how to use the libraries.

There are lots of Arduino libraries and examples available on the internet but there is not one location to find them. You have to use google to find them or the http://playground.arduino.cc/Main/GeneralCodeLibrary is also useful.
