Windows.Devices.GPIO : How to get this working on non iot platform

Question

Hi,

We are using Intel CherryTrail (Now ARK) . To access the GPIOs from UWP app, Windows.Devices.GPIO these apis are available. But These are not able to detect the Intel Serial IO GPIO controller.  What is required to make these APIs working. I read that a usermode driver is required. similar to this one. https://github.com/ms-iot/bsp/tree/master/drivers/gpio/bcm2836

But there are no clear guideline available. Can some please give the definite answer?

Thanks,

Hi Rita,

I did, but it is not able to detect Gpio default controller.

This call

GpioController.GetDefault(); 

returns null.

Thanks
