	Hi, I am new to Visual Micro and working through the Visual Micro User Guide with a simple Blink example. How to export source code so it can be uploaded as an attachment? Should this .elf error be posted on a forum for MSVS, Atmel, Visual Micro, Arduino, Teensy, or C++? Error creating .elf Output: Quote: Compiling 'Sketch1' for 'Teensy 2.0' Build folder: file:///C:/Users/wolf/AppData/Local/VMicro/Arduino/Builds/Sketch1/teensy2 Summary: Header=1 Prototypes=3 Imports=0 Additional Defines: F_CPU=16000000L;USB_SERIAL;LAYOUT_US_ENGLISH;VISUALMICRO_COMPILER_VER=1; Architecture Tools: C:\Program Files (x86)\Arduino\hardware\tools\avr\bin\ GCC: 4.3.2 Sketchbook: file:///C:/Users/wolf/Documents/Arduino Core Include Paths Include Path 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Arduino\hardware\teensy\cores\teensy' C:\Program Files (x86)\Arduino\hardware\tools\avr\bin\avr-g++ -c -g -Os -fno-exceptions -ffunction-sections -fdata-sections -Wall -mmcu=atmega32u4 -MMD -DUSB_VID=null -DUSB_PID=null -DARDUINO=105 -felide-constructors -I"C:\Program Files (x86)\Arduino\hardware\teensy\cores\teensy" -o " � -DF_CPU=16000000L -DUSB_SERIAL -DLAYOUT_US_ENGLISH -DVISUALMICRO_COMPILER_VER=1 -DTEENSYDUINO=118 C:\Program Files (x86)\Arduino\hardware\tools\avr\bin\avr-g++ -c -g -Os -fno-exceptions -ffunction-sections -fdata-sections -Wall -mmcu=atmega32u4 -MMD -DUSB_VID=null -DUSB_PID=null -DARDUINO=105 -felide-constructors -I"C:\Program Files (x86)\Arduino\hardware\teensy\cores\teensy" -o "C:\Users\wolf\AppData\Local\VMicro\Arduino\Builds\Sketch1\teensy2\wait.cpp" -DF_CPU=16000000L -DUSB_SERIAL -DLAYOUT_US_ENGLISH -DVISUALMICRO_COMPILER_VER=1 -DTEENSYDUINO=118 C:\Program Files (x86)\Arduino\hardware\tools\avr\bin\avr-gcc -Os -Wl,--gc-sections,--relax -mmcu=atmega32u4 -L"C:\Users\wolf\AppData\Local\VMicro\Arduino\Builds\Sketch1\teensy2" -o "C:\Users\wolf\AppData\Local\VMicro\Arduino\Builds\Sketch1\teensy2\Sketch1.elf" " "C:\Users\wolf\AppData\Local\VMicro\Arduino\Builds\Sketch1\teensy2\wait.cpp.o" "C:\Users\wolf\AppData\Local\VMicro\Arduino\Builds\Sketch1\teensy2\core.a" -lm Sketch1.cpp.o:In function `loop' Sketch1.ino:waitHere()' Error creating .elf This sketch worked before I added the WaitClass, when it was a single .ino file. Thank you.

	Solved... I Verified the .ino file in Arduino IDE and got this error: Quote: Sketch1.cpp.o: In function `loop': C:\Program Files (x86)\Arduino/Sketch1.ino:19: undefined reference to `WaitClass::waitHere()' Sure enough, the function definition was missing it's scope resolution. Fixed the syntax and now Teensy blinks.

	Good, I was going to suggest using arduino to verify. It looks like we need a better error message. With Visual Micro you can double click to drill down into errors (most of the time). The reformatting of the errors to allow for this has caused issue with the messages themselves! I'll add it to the list for the next release
