	getting the following error when compiling arduplane in visual micro... version is 2.40 b. I think its the problem with the library files not being integrated into the project.but i don't know where to put the library files in visual micro...

	UPDATE: I hope you don't mind but I have removed the previous discussions in this thread because they confuse the problem (my fault). I now have a fresh working install of ArduPilot so have been able to test and resolve this issue. There is a bug in the visual micro compiler that fails to declare the prototype for one of the ArduPilot functions. A prototype is a function signature. The compiler extracts all functions from all of the .pde files and adds them as prototypes but failed to find one for the gcs_send_text_fmt function. In the current version of vm this issue can be resolved simply by adding the following source just prior to the "//� Serial Ports" comment (as shown below) [code]static void gcs_send_text_fmt(const prog_char_t *fmt, ...); // Serial ports [/code] Sorry for all the messing about. I am surprised that noone else has reported this problem. After all of the messing about (sorry again) we need to ensure that your vm is working. Please make sure the checkboxes are checked for the Vm addin in "Tools>Addin Manager". Best of luck, now that I have a clean ArduPilot install I hope to be able to guide you more easily! Thanks for all your wasted efforts!! [b]PS: The good news is that VM compiles Ardupilot in under 7 seconds, the Arduino 1.0.1 ide compiles in 27 seconds. So I hope you find it is worth the effort. If you prefer to continue to use the "External Editor" checkbox in Arduino so that you edit in VS and compile in Arduino then this is okay[/b]

	This is fixed in the 1.1206.30 beta in the downloads list of codeplex. Please let me know if you find any problems with the build
