• Fix: Slow compile. Recent changes for GDB caused project sources to always be compiled.
• Long standing bug caused some/slight "slowness" when navigating between source code files
• Fix: A shared project reference was not automatically added when adding a library as a shared project via the "Add Library" menu
• Fix: Automatic adding of shared library project reference to the current project failed to add the reference (required late binding due to avoid VS shims)
• Change!! Libraries included below the platform/core take priority over sketchbook/libraries. We made this change last year but had some complaints so rolled it back. However the Arduino IDE has applied this change therefore it is now applied to Visual Micro. This means that downloaded user installed libraries will be ignored if they exist below the installed board package platform. We have also extended visual micro to support a platform library override facilities "sketchbook/hardware/package_name/platform_name/libraries" and "sketchbook/hardware/package_name/platform_name/platform_ver/libraries" which provides a solution for people who do not want to use the library supplied by the author of the platform/core.

Reminder: Shared library projects can also be used which then allows specific location libraries to be selected per project. This means a library can exist anywhere, for example below the solution folder allowing source control check-in alongside the project code. Obviously this way of working also supports different versions of the same library.
