Unable to get code working on a Due

I just got an Arduino Due and cannot get a sketch to run on it using Visual Studio 2015 or 2013 using Visual micro.  I can build and upload the sketch, but it doesn't execute on the Due.  I have used the same sketch on the Arduino IDE v1.6.7 and it runs fine.  But, when I compile and upload the same sketch on either version of Visual studio, nothing happens.  I am using the Time library's example sketch TimeRTC.  I can upload to a Mega and an Uno board just fine.  Any help on this issue would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,

I suspect this is already under development. 1.6.7 introduced a new ctags system which is still a little buggy so we are taking a little time to introduce the same but without the bugs. 

If you look at the verbose output from the arduino ide you will see that it is attempting to compile library examples and other invalid files. This is slow but works okay for the time/rtc lib which is new and relies on the ctags system. Yet fails with some other libs.

The work will be completed within the next week or two. In the meantime you can enable "file>preferences>external editor" in the arduino ide so the same code can be open in both VS and Arduino. Edit in VS, click upload in Arduino.

Thanks

Thanks for the tip, I didn't even know that existed.  I have been using Visual Micro for a few years now and it's good to know that there is good support and solution behind it.  I'll use your solution for the next few releases of VM and if I still have problems after that I'll repost.
