Hi,

I'm trying to upload an arduino sketch into Atmel Studio using Visual Studio.
I'm using BLE_SDK_ARDUINO, amongst other libraries, to provide support for the nRF8001 BLE chip from Nordic.

For some reason, the Makefile is trying to load all examples in this library, thus returning a big number of errors:
# Every subdirectory with source files must be described here
SUBDIRS :=  \
../include/ \
../include/core/ \
../include/libraries/ \

../include/variants/standard/  (...)

Since every library shares a similar structure (includes Examples) why is the compiler trying to attach all the examples in the BLE_SDK_ARDUINO? How can I fix this?

I tried removing the examples folder from it's original location, but the compiler returned all the same errors.

hi,

You are right. I was using the option "Create Project from Arduino Sketch", which is not provided by Visual Micro. Sorry for the confusion. Meanwhile I tried to open the sketch through Visual Micro and it works fine.

Many thanks.
