I have Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 Professional installed on Windows/10 and have been coding in C# for a couple of years.
I have just installed Dot Net Core 3.1 SDK.
I want to write C# code to run on a Raspberry Pi running Raspbian Buster (Linux) and use the GPIO pins.
What do I need to do in Visual Studio 2010 Professional to make it 'see' the Dot Net Core libraries?
For example, I want to be able to write:

using System.Device.Gpio;

What I have tried:

I have tried 'Add Reference' but I cannot find anything that looks like dot net core in the list of .Net components.

not sure about VS 2010, but this may help Getting started with IoT Core and C# on the Raspberry Pi | Blogs | Plextek[^] (See step 7)

There is a slightly different option if VS 2010 doesn't support that 'Remote' approach, that is outlined here Setting up Raspian and .NET Core 2.0 on a Raspberry Pi | Microsoft Docs[^] (or, I guess, get yourself the community edition of VS2019)

This Easy Set Up of .NET Core on Raspberry Pi and Remote Debugging with VS Code[^] Using Visual Studio Code is also a good option (there's 2 parts)

Garth,
Thanks for all those links, they are various ways around my problem and I will certainly follow them up.

However, I do not need remote debugging and I am quite happy to deploy the compiled code manually to the pi. So I just want to have a last go to persuade Visual Studio 2010 to
locate the DotNetCore 3.1 SDK modules I have already installed.

I know the folder is in

C:\Program Files\dotnet\sdk\3.1.302

but I don't know which dlls I need to point to, with Visual Studio's "Add Reference" facility.

If there was some way to inspect these dlls to see what classes/methods they contain, I possibly would then have a chance.

Chris
