I updated to the latest version of VM and I'm getting linker errors when trying to compile. My user folder and package folder have spaces and it seems to be throwing a fit.

arm-none-eabi-gcc*: error: Lindquist\AppData\Local\arduino15\packages\Escape: No such file or directory
 

Any easy way to escape directories?

Sent via email. Link in upper yellow points to sales@visualmicro.com, hope that's okay.

Do you mean in the text file I sent? I downloaded it and I'm pretty sure the full log is there

Toolchain is located at
C:\Users\Austin -2014q1\bin

Escape Room Techs package doesn't have toolchain (no tools folder, etc).

I created the ERT package, it's based off of adafruit feather m0 with some changes to core and additional libraries. I've been using the package for over a year, I decided to update VM, lost deep search, tried to roll back but couldn't remember what version I was on, and updated again  . Seems to compile fine but linker input path names are no longer escaped?, same setup on my laptop (user name is admin) seems to compile okay even with spaces in package name but not user name?

Package (codebase not current, once package is installed changes are made / tracked with SVN) https://github.com/anidea/aeifx/blob/master/package_escaperoomtechs_index.json

Arduino SAMD and Adafruit SAMD packages are installed, I've updated to latest version. Attached build log

Update. The escape rooms tech doesn't currently build in arduino ide or visual micro. Instead I have uaded a generic samd arduino zero.

The platform.txt of each core is used to create the compiler commands. We can see that they all have double quotes around paths therefore should work fine with spaces.

You can see below that I moved my appdata\arduino15 folder into arduinoide\portable and I also added a space into the path. This builds fine.

Before continuing can you please try to build a new simple project with Arduino Zero selected as the board and then also as the escape room BadAss Controller board.

Below is an example of the build command that contained a space and works for me. 

NB: All the commands you see in the verbose output are independant. You can copy one or more into a .bat file or run from command prompt. Does that work?

Thanks

Good to hear it is working. Thanks for the update. we will look into a better error if the folder doesn't exist or fix if a bug.
