Sketch compiles without errors, but editor shows errors

I didn't have this problem on another computer. I installed visual studio with c++ and visual micro on new machine and sketches are compiled without errors, but editor shows errors like: 
Quote:
cannot open source file "SPI.h"

Quote:
identifier Serial is undefined

Hi,

Did you save your project?

Which board are you using?

Which Arduino ide?

What happens if you switch to a different board then back to the right one again (using the board list)

Yes it's saved. I tried to clean build, tried creating another project. Arduino IDE 1.6.5, tried 1.6.6 before (same problems). Board is uno. When i switch a boards i see that document refreshes - errors disappear for vary short moment, then reappear.

Thanks for the files. They show a new empty visual studio project. If this was a test project you created to show the problem then please ensure you have built it at least once and have saved the project not just the .ino. The best way to ensure you have saved properly is to close the ide and click save if/when prompted.

Please also post or email the output after compile. Switch on "Visual Micro>Verbose messages" before compiling. 
Thanks

I probably was doing one thing wrong - i had solution cloned from git (created in same version of VS and (probably) same version of visual micro). Problem is present only inside this solution and i've been creating new projects inside it (didn't notice it before). When i create new project with new solution, everything works fine. Sorry for wrong report and taking your time Wink

So now the problem it that editor shows errors but sketch compiles fine when using solution cloned from git (this one: https://github.com/dawidm/tracker). It isn't very big problem for me, i will work it around somehow.

Thanks for the info. When the tracker-vs project is open does the toolbar say x86 or x64 or Win32?

x64, but i've just resolved the problem. In solution properties -> configuration properties -> configuration i had x64 for this cloned project but win32 for newly created solutions. Changing from x64 to win32 resolves the problem Smiley

Yes I am looking into why the intellisense isn't updated unless the project is set to x86/Win32. You right the compile is unaffected because it doesn't use these vs settings.

Thanks again
