APM - 2.9 Include paths appear to be wrong

Builds fine with sketch, but fails with visual micro:

Compiling 'ArduCopter' for 'Arduino Mega 2560 HAL (Apm 2)'
BetterStream.h : In file included from
FastSerial.h : from
ArduCopter.ino : from
AP_Common.h : No such file or directory

Tried everything suggested above. INCLUDE paths don't seem to setup right! What next?

Windows 7 64
MSVS 2012
arduino 1.0.5
latest visualmicro download
arducopter 2.9.1b-final

Hi,

I hope you don't mind I moved this to a new thread. It is always better to create a new thread unless the problem and configuration is identical to another.

For the sake of clarity it might be better that you use arduino 1.0.4 instead of 1.0.5 because 1.0.5 hasn't been well tested yet, as as you could see in the other thread 1.0.4 is currently recommended.

You will probably hit the same problem with 1.0.4 but it removes some possible unknowns.

The include paths are determined from the SketchBook folder (where the Libraries folder exsists as a sub folder). 

If I recall correctly, normally for APM, you are advised to set the folder using "File>Preferences" in the Arduino Ide.

In Visual Micro there are two ways to set the correct SketchBook location, either you set it in the Arduino ide as mentioned above, then you must re-start Visual Micro/Visual Studio/Atmel

Or

The location can be set in the Visual Micro options in which case the change will take immediate effect (restart not required)

"tools>options>visual micro\applications locations>arduino sketchbook"

Can you confirm if this helps, if not please explain where the libraries are located and what your sketchbook folder is set to?

Thanks

Hi,

First thing to do please install arduino 1.0.4 from arduino.cc and set visual micro to use that.

Thanks

Tried 1.0.4... same exact result

The library files are located in a subfolder of of the sketch book forlder called 'libraries', which is not within the Arduino install folder. In visualmicro, all of the libs show up correctly as included.

Also the sketchbook folder location is set explicitly in both sketchbook and visualmicro.

Also note, that building under sketchbook works without error.

Hello,

Thanks for using 1.0.4, I am sure 1.0.5 is fine but we have some confusion and the ide is now removed from any possible cause.

Few questions then I think I will have the answer

1)
When you say building under "sketchbook" is OK, do you mean building in the modified diydrones Arduino IDE is OK?


2)
Can you please confirm the path that you have set for your sketchBook folder and where this is set? (confirm the name of the property you have set and the value you have used)

3)

Please confirm the path of the Arduino Ide that you are using (confirm the name of the property you have set and the value you have used)

4)

Please include the build output like you did below but with the latest config

There is some confusion with path configuration, I will explain it more clearly once I understand your current setup

Thanks

So... everything looks fine! Why the compile errors???

Arduino 1.0.4 UI doesn't have this problem but I'd prefer to be using Visual Studio.  Undecided

Hi, sorry I have not had time to investigate yet. Hopefully in a few days. The problem is that this is working for quite a few other people and there is little to the config. So I have to try to work out what is different for your install.

Arduino 1.0.4 can not compile APM projects so when you say it works in 1.0.4 what do you mean? Thanks

I have no problem building APM with Arduino 1.0.4 if I select a 2560 board. It may not run on APM, but it builds.

1)
Fine then you can not be running apm 2.9 because my understandingis that  diydrones made a modified Arduino ide to provide special compiler switches required for APM 2.9 and above.

2)
The HAL board you have selected in Visual Micro is for APM HAL, not a normal APM build, there is also SITL. 

The Arduino IDE does not know about HAL or SITL so by selecting these boards you are moving to a different system and not comparing like for like.

3)

If the standard 2560 compiles in 1.0.4 then in Visual Micro you should use the Mega 2560 board with the same name that you select in the Arduino IDE. Do not use the special APM boards in the list because they contain different settings to 1.0.4 and you obviously don't need them.

Does it work if you selected the normal Arduino 2560 mega (adk) board?
