Hi,

Thanks for the post and sorry you are having this issue.

For Arduino 1.5.7 we found that the core can not auto-discover the cygwin program that the g++ compiler uses. (The ide installs with the cygwin in the exe folder) 

We made a change to the last Visual Micro releases (which you are using) to cater for this by ensuring the path to the arduino exe folder was set as a PATH variable when running the compiler. This worked for most users.

Another user has subsequently reported that he has other software installed that uses a different version of cygwin and that version is in the global pc environment variables PATH which overrides Visual Micro. As such takes priority over our change and causes the compile to fail.

So we will shortly be releasing a new version of visual micro that prevents the "other" installation of cygwin from screwing up the Arduino compile.

I suspect this is the problem you are encountering because the useless error message is the same as we encountered originally with 1.5.7 and the same as was reported by the other user I mentioned previously.

To resolve this issue until the next Visual Micro update I suspect that you might simply be able to add the arduino.exe folder to the PATH variables via "MyComputer>Environment Settings"

If my reply does not make sense to you then please say and I will try to post clearer instructions.

Look forward to hearing your thoughts. Alternatively use arduino 1.5.6 until the next release which should be within the next week or so.

Thanks

ps: I think the arduino ide avoids this issue because the files are within the Ide folder.

Thanks a lot,
because I use many other tools and some of them may be causing the problem definitively reinstalled "visual micro" and I used the Arduino 1.5.6 r2. Everything works as it should. The simplest solutions tend to be the best.
One more time thanks a lot.
