Hi Alex,

Visual Micro should work with user libraries but it sounds like the sketchbook folder in visual micro has been set different to the arduino ide.

Please do this :-

In Visual Micro...

Drop down the list of apps such as Arduino 1.0.x and click <Configuration Manager>

What is the Sketchbook Folder set to?

nb: If blank is should use the same as the arduino ide.

Thanks

The "User" libraries are expected to be in a folder called libraries below the sketch book folder. 

Example: [SketchBookFolder]\Libraries

If the sketch book folder is different to that of the arduino ide then the user libraries need to be copied over. Then re-start the ide or click "tools>visual micro>reload tool chains"

Well, now i copied the libraries folder with al the libraries from the users/arduino/libraries folder (default arduino sketchbook folder) to the aforementioned OPTIONALLY ENTER A SKETCHBOOK LOCATION of visual micro.

Now the libraries are show on  Project / add / import library / User

So i select to import one from adafruit, then visual miccro adds  "#include <Adafruit_ILI9341.h>"

Now i got a lot of errors, well the file was found (i mean, no not found error) but i get:

Error compiling





So it does not work, this is maybe a problem with my file that its a class or what, why that errores ??

My project consist on 

//d1.ino 
#include <Adafruit_ILI9341.h> //added by visual micro
#include "Arduino.h";
#include "Action.h";
#include "Run.h";
/* ITEAD */ int dirPin1 = 3; int stepperPin1 = 2; int dirPin2 = 7; int stepperPin2 = 6;
void setup(){ /* ITEAD */ pinMode(dirPin1, OUTPUT); pinMode(stepperPin1, OUTPUT); pinMode(dirPin2, OUTPUT); pinMode(stepperPin2, OUTPUT);}
void loop(){Run run = Run(dirPin1,stepperPin1,dirPin2,stepperPin2);}

//run.h
#ifndef Run_h
#define Run_h
#include "Arduino.h"
class Run
{
public:
typedef enum eWindow {HOME = 0};
typedef enum eUserAction {NOTHING = 0, GOABOUT = 1, GOPRESETS = 2};
Run(void); Run(int dirPin1, int stepperPin1, int dirPin2 , int stepperPin2);
void step(boolean dir,int steps, int dirPin1, int stepperPin1, int dirPin2, int stepperPin2);
void listenUser();
};
#endif
      
//run.cpp
#include "Arduino.h"
#include "Run.h"
#include "Util.h"
Run::eWindow currentWindow = Run::HOME;
Run::eUserAction userAction = Run::NOTHING;
void Run::listenUser(){
        //I CANNOT USE THIS CODE CAUSE I NEED THE LIBRARY <Adafruit_ILI9341.h> WORKING, AND IT IS NOT
       // i need to use:
       //Adafruit_STMPE610 ts = Adafruit_STMPE610(STMPE_CS); //that object comes from that library
     //if (!ts.bufferEmpty()) {
           //userAction==Run::GOABOUT;

     //}

}

etc ..


WHY ?

SOLUTION ?

Thanks, Solved adding the other libraries
