	Could Clean Solution actually delete the temporary build files created by Arduino? Tonight I've had issues with VM's cache. It doesn't happen very often and I'm not sure what causes it. Each time I think this should be sorted by Build / Clean Solution, but cleaning the solution doesn't cure the problem. It is cured by deleting the AppData\Local\VMicro\Arduino\Builds\ProjectName folder. Iain

	Yep keep forgetting to do that please add to codeplex. I would also like to make the change detection system better. It's supposed to be solid! So what sort of file changes were you making that broke it? Do you think it breaks with certain types of compile failures?

	Codeplex issue added. I wish I understood what was causing the problem. If I knew I'd try and avoid doing them. In my most recent case I'd just created a new project. No idea what I did wrong. Iain

	maybe the problem is that it uses the sketch name in the path to the cache. moving the temp compile files to each projects bin folder will be a better system. i will ensure that is in the next build. out of interest have you been creating projects with same name as another project (deleted or current)? if not then the next time it happens please zip and send me the temp folder before you delete it

	I think you may have hit the problem on the head. I've created projects with the same name in different folders, especially with the project re-organisation I've been doing the last couple of weeks. If you think you've got a solution that's great. As an alternative you might consider using the GUID created by VS when it creates a new project. Iain

	yep, have a solution or two but the compile cache should have auto detected and refreshed. Anyway as you say it's easily sorted thanks

	The next version (28) creates a temp folder based on guids instead of sketch name. I don't think anyone will need it now but the std. Visual Studio "Clean" commands clear compiler cache. There are some new options to enable you to specify where you want the temp build folder to be located :- 1) Always use visual studio project build folder or 2) Fixed build folder path or 3) Automatic (default)

Visual Studio "Clean" commands clear compiler cache. The latest release is 27. Does this contain this fix? I tried a clean last night and it didn't work. Had to delete the files myself. I'd deleted some code, including virtual methods and wanted to guarantee that all files were updated. I'm using VS2008 v9.0.30729.1 and VM v27. Iain

	No sorrry it will be in the next. It's almost done but turned into a larger job because the build folder needs to be passed to the compiler when previously the compiler worked it out for itself. Hopefully next weekend all being well. In the meantime you could do it yourself using a visual studuio macro but it's prob easier just to click on explorer:)

	Fair enough. I think I can manage using explorer until then. Iain
