	Visual Micro tested with new Arduino 1.06? Teensy and others aren't using the perpetual-beta 1.5. Some release notes for 1.06: Quote: Changelog Core ° avr: Improved USB-CDC write speed (Justin Rajewski) ° avr: Improved USB-CDC read code (Paul Brook) ° avr: Fixed race condition in USB-CDC transmit (Paul Brook) ° avr: Added replacement stub for cstdlib atexit() funciton (Christopher Andrews) ° Fixed wrong NULL pointer handling in Stream class (Amulya Kumar Sahoo) ° Backported String class from IDE 1.5.x (Matt Jenkins) ° Backported Print class from IDE 1.5.x ° Backported digitalPinToInterrupt macro from IDE 1.5.x ° Added initVariant() hook to allow 3rd party variant-specific initialization ° Added replacement stub for cstdlib atexit() function (Christopher Andrews) IDE Quote: ° Added compatibility for IDE 1.5.x libraries layout ° Fix toolchain command line to compile assembler files (Jimmy Hedman) ° If two libraries have the same header file use the lib with the same folder name (Paul Stoffregen) Libraries ° Robot_Control: removed duplicated SPI and Wire (Xun Yang) ° Robot_Control: fixed issue on motors being opposite (Xun Yang) ° Robot_Control: updated turning algorithm (Xun Yang) ° Esplora: added reading form Tinkerkit inputs ° SoftwareSerial: Fix idle level when initializing with inverted logic (Jens-Christian Skibakk) ° fixed a bunch of examples Firmware ° Wifishield: fixed paths on firmware upgrade scripts https://github.com/arduino/Arduino/releases/tag/1.0.6 ; the "Added compatibility for IDE 1.5.x libraries layout"... what exactly does that mean to the build process?

	Hi, Thanks for the update it really helps this project when users test and report. Quote: "Added compatibility for IDE 1.5.x libraries layout"... what exactly does that mean to the build process Arduino 1.5 was designed with a new library structure called Rev2 then it was was redesigned with a new library structure called Rev3. Then it was decided that 1.5 should also support the 1.0.x format (Rev1). Then it was decided that 1.0.x should also support Rev3 and finally we have 1.0.6 and 1.5.x working the same. Because Visual Micro supports Arduino 1.0.x and 1.5.x it has always ignored which Arduino Ide is installed and supported any combination of Rev1 and Rev2 and Rev3. Sometimes Arduino makes life hard for themselves but at least they are putting it right now The build process is the same but a Rev3 library can contain architecture dependent sources and be available only to certain architectures. Example: You will currently see less libraries in 1.5.x for a Due than an Uno because some libs are Rev3, but Rev1 format libs show for all. Teensy uses Rev1

	I've stuck with Arduino 1.05 (now 1.06) because if I use libraries in 1.5 and not back-ported to 1.0x then I'm in a jam because Teensy and others don't support 1.5. I'll re-read your response a few more times. The whole situation is confusing!

	Sorry it wasn't clear. It is not something you need to worry about. Your 1.0.5 libs will work with 1.0.6 and 1.5 without modification. It means you can now use any library format with any version of Arduino. However, for Teensy, you should use the Arduino version that Paul at pjrc.com recommends otherwise he can't support you.

	Thanks. I use Teensy 3/ARM and Anarduino boards which are AVR. Same code, no change. It's great.

	Sounds perfect, I like it when the same libs work cross platform without need for the complex Rev3 stuff! What a waste of time 1.5 has been!!
