Intel XDK support for GSM library

[NK]

Hey guys. I actually need some opinions as to whether intel XDK has support for GSM shield compatible with gen2 board. I will be actually using the arduino compatible shield with gen 2.

Secondly, are there any libraries out there (either js or C also would be fine) because it seems difficult to find one for GSM functionalities like messaging, internet browsing etc..

I am open for suggestion for intel XDK as well as IoT eclipse also.

Any help would be heartily appreciated.

I'd suggest you try some way avoiding GSM Arduino library (which would be the "intel XDK as well as IoT eclipse also" alternative you wrote about, I think), since I do not see any of them in the section "Supported Arduino libraries" at http://www.intel.la/content/www/xl/es/embedded/products/galileo/galileo-sw-release-notes.html http://www.intel.la/content/www/xl/es/embedded/products/galileo/galileo-sw-release-notes.html

Edit: maybe there are some ideas at https://blog.arduino.cc/2014/12/19/gsm-controlled-star-light-a-xmas-tutorial-for-intel-galileo/ Arduino Blog – GSM Controlled Star Light: A xmas tutorial for Intel Galileo, but I didn't check.

HTH,

Fernando.
