Here's some new code that doesn't work.
Code:
#include <stdio>
#include <iostream>
#include <windows>
#include <roboard_dll>
#include "stdafx.h"
#include "rcservo.h"


using namespace System;




int main()
{
rcservo_SetServo(0,RCSERVO_SERVO_DEFAULT_NOFB);
Console::WriteLine("Setting Up Servo Type \n");
   
if(rcservo_Initialize(RCSERVO_USECHANNEL0))
{
      rcservo_EnterPWMMode();
         Console::WriteLine("Entering PWM Mode");
      
      if(rcservo_SendPWMPulses(0, 10000L, 1500L, 100L))
      {
         Console::WriteLine("Something Should Be Moving \n");
      }
      else
      {
         Console::WriteLine("Failed To Send Pulses \n");
      }
}
   else
   {
   Console::WriteLine("Failed To Initialize Rcservo");
   }
return 0;
}


I have no idea what's not working, I'm using hs645mg's, I reset the bios to GPIO with the switch set to pull up, I set up VS 2005 according to the manual, code runs fine, always returns false at rcservo_Initialize, servo does not move.

I cannot generate a PWM.
Here is the code I borrowed from comds
Code:
#include <stdio>
#include <iostream>
#include <windows>
#include <roboard>
#include <iostream>
#include "stdafx.h"
#include "rcservo.h"


using namespace System;

unsigned long PWM_period = 10000L;
unsigned long PWM_duty = 1500L;
unsigned long count = 100L;


int main()
{
   

   
if(rcservo_Initialize(RCSERVO_USECHANNEL1))
{      

   rcservo_EnterPWMMode();
   

   rcservo_SendPWMPulses(int(1), PWM_period, PWM_duty, count);
   
   
   rcservo_Close();
   
}
else
{
   return 1;   
}
   return 0;
}


I am completely new to programming, I can't even get cout to work :oops:.
Anyway I always get an exit code of 1, and all of the dll's that load say "no symbols loaded" with the exception of winio.dll that says "Binary was not built with debug information."
I have the bias for pwm rather than gpio, I just don't know what's going on here....

I can post the entire output log if anybody wants it, but this post is probably long enough already.
