Title: memset/memcpy error
Post by milesf on Jul 9^th, 2018 at 7:31am

Hi,
Looks like the general board had a crash and lost the posts?
Just reviving this one anyway.
So the memset/memcpy command creates a red line under the first variable.
I am using the arduino zero native board downloaded from the arduino IDE. Latest version.
Any more info, let me know.
I dont think I got to read the last post you did on the previous thread.
Thanks

Hi

In __vm\project_name.vsarduino.h you will see an intellisense fix for memset

Please add a a new text file to the same folder called vs-intellisense-fix.h

Then build.

Then add an overload to vs-intellisense-fix.h that resolves the red squiggles.

Then let me know what it is so I can review/patch all the overloads for intellisense.

The issue is that the core uses _EXTFUNC for many methods which vs doesn't like at the moment

Thanks very much.

Hi milesf

Can you please post the code you are using including any definition of variables used when calling memset.

It might be the zero/samd toolchain has changed dramatically in which case we can usually switch to an alternative visual studio engine but this one might be a simple one.

If it's simple I will make the change and put in a new build for you. There are a number of other functions similar to memset that will also need to change so should be a decent improvements.

Thanks

ps: you don't put your prototypes in a function you just paste them into the intellisense-fix file and save it. Visual Micro then uses it in background so it's not real code. However if you answer above questions I will update visual micro save you having to understand this. Thanks
