the Arduino Extension to Atmel Studio by Visual Micro is pretty sweet!!
i am not sure if its old or new because i never checked out the extension manager before
Remember earlier i posted i was having trouble switching IDE because of some AVRDUDE error and was having to use tinyISP
well now with this extension added to my Atmel studio
I can program in an Arduino enviroment , meaning upload to the boards without use of a programmer in Wiring language , also i just point it to the Arduino libraries and its all there
has buttons for the serial monitor to pop up as well as a frame with the online documentation and example code for the libraries etc...
I just like it because now i can use the arduino enviroment and avr c programming all in one IDE. just thought i would let you know, i know theres a couple of you who use Atmel studio.
