Hi,

The deep search text is a tip the real error is shown above.

It would help if you switched on vmicro>compiler>verbose and also "show build properties"

Then build and either attach the entire output as a .txt to this post or email it to info[at]visualmicro.com

Thanks v much

Sorry forgot to attach the code. Placed it in a txt file.

Thanks for the output

The error is shown as follows:-

I2CIO.cpp:35:26: fatal error: ..\Wire\Wire.h: No such file or directory
:#include <..\Wire\Wire.h>
:compilation terminated 

There has been some big changes in how arduino libraries are structured since end of last year.

1)
The #include of Wire.h I2CIO.cpp is wrong. It should simply be #include <Wire.h>  and you should check the .h file in the same folder if it has the same.

The I2CIO.cpp is in C:\Users\Nick\Documents\Arduino\libraries\LiquidCrystal'

or

2)
It might work if you switch of "vMicro>Compiler>Deep Search Includes" because that switches off new library resolving functionality that was introduced into the arduino ide build end of last year. If you then ensure that #include <Wire.h> exists in the project_name.ino you will work the way arduino used to work.

Summary

You haven't said which arduino ide version you were on previously maybe it was pre 1.6.7 in which case the above is very relevant.

Does this make sense? Help?

Hi,

I gave two pieces of information and solutions in my last response and I am having problems connecting your last post.

1)

The incorrect #include is in the <I2CIO.h> in the LiquidCrystal library

2)

Did you switch off the "Deep Search" so that you revert to the way things worked in older versions of Arduino.


Final question

Does the project compile using the arduino ide?

Thanks

Hi all

I am still extremely lost with this new setup - even with Deep Search disabled I am getting errors that make no sense to me.

Hopefully I can get this resolved as I am way behind after upgrading. Regards Nick

Hi Tim

I got it wrong. I had uninstalled 1.6.10 and gone back a version so that is why it was compiling. When I went back to 1.6.10 the compile errors in the Arduino IDE popped up. Sadly I cannot find that User/..... folder to be able to delete it. Lots of head scratching here. Stumped.

Hi

Sadly I do not see the folder at all. All I see is C:\Users\Nick\ and a whole herd of .Folders NO AppData\Local\Arduino15.

Does this folder appear only once 1.6.10 is installed as I have had to revert to 1.6.5 to be able to continue working on the project.

Regards

Nick

Hi Tim
I found the folder, thanks - then deleted it as you said I should. When I tried to build in the Arduino IDE I got the same errors again, then tried it in VS and got same. Below is the verbose output. I don't quite understand the whole toolchain build process so cant make out the error message but it still seems it is something to do with the same libraries. In version 1.6.5 it all compile fine.

Regards
Nick

Hi
Apologies for that. Attached is verbose output.  I'm still stumped with this - seems like it's only with version 1.6.10 of the Arduino IDE.
Regards
Nick

After much head bashing last night I found the problem. I had, for some reason, loaded LiquidCrystal into my Arduino libraries folder so essentially had 2 versions. I removed the Wire issue and all worked - that's when I realized that I was referencing the wrong library so removed it in order that the Arduino IDE installed one would be referenced.

Appreciate all the help. Many thanks. Still struggling with the Visual Studio Debugger - cannot get it to work.....
