hmmm. The compiler error propagates to the GCC command line the curly braces and contents if the item has no value assigned. That of course causes compiler errors.

I see the "recipes" scheme in Arduno 1.6.

I'm exasperated.
I now have Arduino 1.6.1 and Teensyduino (installed secondly).
Arduino IDE works as it should.
The boards.txt file differs a lot. I boards.txt as per the comments in that file to enable defines there rather than as VS/VM project properties.

When I run VS/VM, it does not display the same list of boards as does the Arduino IDE. Example: there are board choices for different CPU speeds. F_CPU definition method changed.

I cannot see where VS/VM is getting the old boards.txt file. The VM installation for Teensy page says
Quote:
These standard Teensy defines can be found in the boards.txt file which can be found under the [TeensyDuino IDE folder]/Hardware/Teensy/. See the tags "build.definen typo" and "build.f_cpu"


But the boards.txt file is on a different path:
C:\arduino\hardware\teensy\avr\boards.txt

Note the oddity of "avr" in the path as Teensy 3's aren't AVRs. But that's how it is. And the Arduino IDE works.

Sigh.

Hi

Look thanks for all the info. As you see teensy is changing at the moment day by day. 

You do have full control over what you want to see and use in Visual Micro and also the compile process but only if you understand how the boards.txt and platform.txt work.

Otherwise I am sorry but you will have to wait for a couple of weeks while Teensy stabilizes and I get a quite few moments to implement the changes.

Thanks

Spoken with Paul. He is going to try to stabalise the Teensy beta next week. After that we can look at how best to implement all his clever new new options.

Thanks

Have you heard that anyone has gotten Teensy 3.1 to work with VS/VM and the teensydunio beta that uses Arduino 1.6. or 1.6.1?

If not, I suppose to get VS/VM working again for Teensy 3.1 I must uninstall Arduino 1.6.1 and revert to teensuduino prior to the  beta. And use Teensy 3.1 since the LC wouldn't have support for that older version.

Hopefully the issues will be solved soon, simple they are- the GCC command line is getting {several.values} passed through without string replacement. It's very likely a simple correction but I don't know the internals of all this.

Hi Stevetec

You don't need to uninstall. 

You can run with both versions. Use the zip files on arduino.cc to make two directories. for example c:\arduino-105 and c:\arduino-600.

Then run the teensyduino beta installer onto c:\arduino-600

Then run the teensyduino release installer onto c:\arduino-105

In Visual Micro configure "Teensy 1.0" with path c:\arduino-105 and "Arduino 1.6" with path c:\arduino-600

Then you can use the "list of applications" on the tool bar to easily switch any project between Teensy release and Teensy beta

As concerns Teensy 3x working with the beta. It was working in last weeks beta but it might fail with this weeks beta especially if you don't set the boards.txt menu selections to match what is defined in platform.txt. So will look again when paul gives me the nod.

Hope this makes sense.

When and only when your workload permits, and now that Teensyduino 1.21 is out of beta, we can revisit what needs changing to allow use of VM.

Regards
Steve

a barely audible whimper says 
VM on Teensyduino 1.21 for Arduino 1.6.1
close but no cigar so far.

Hi,

Please see current status in our release notes and also see the Teensy page for configuration instructions

http://www.visualmicro.com/page/Visual-Micro-Product-Version-History-Fixes-and-A...
http://www.visualmicro.com/page/Teensy-for-Microsoft-Visual-Studio.aspx

Due to the fact that all Arduino 1.6.1 Teensy definitions are listed as AVR we will not be able to support it for a while. The above provides initial untested support for Teensy 121 with Arduino 1.0.x. Please follow the new releases section of the forum for future notifications about Teensy.

Thanks

OK.
With one small change to the boards.txt file for Teensyduino 1.21 + Arduino 1.6.1 I was able to build error free.

All I need now is to get VM to call the Teensy loader when I choose download without debug.

Visual Micro is now correctly invoking the Teensy 3/LC downloader.
