Hello,

I am compiling the Blink example for an nRF52 DK, using the Arduino core at https://github.com/sandeepmistry/arduino-nRF5.

It works fine in the Arduino IDE, but fails in Visual Micro, apparently becaue of a missing file. The error message is copied below, where I emphasized some sections that look suspicious, as they start with <-I"C> instead of <"-IC>.

Do you know how I could get over this problem?
Many thanks,

Armel

Thanks for the email. It will be looked at later today and hopefully fixed with an update

Great thanks for the clear report
