<vector><string> compilation problem

Print Post  
I have problem with compilation when I'm returning <vector><string>. I made some tests and the same code compile on PlatformIO and on Arduino. It's easy to replicate problem with VisualMicro. I'm using:
Visual Studio Community 2019 16.7.2
VisualMicro PRO 2020.708.7
Arduino 1.8.13
board is OLIMEX ESP32-EVB
For me it looks like wrong vector and string is used from external dependencies. There is ArduinoSTL instead of esp.

ERROR:
VectorTest1.ino: 8:1: error: invalid use of template-name 'std::vector' without an argument list
   vector<string> test = split("test test test", " ")

CODE FOR REPLICATE PROBLEM:
#include <vector>
#include <string>

using namespace std;
vector<string> split(const string& str, const string& delim);
void setup() {

    vector<string> test = split("test test test", " ");
}

void loop() {
    // put your main code here, to run repeatedly:
}
vector<string> split(const string& str, const string& delim)
{
    vector<string> tokens;
    return tokens;
}

Please find build log and solution in attachment. Thank you for any suggestions.

In the latest forum release (20.07.08.13) this issue should now be resolved, and it can be downloaded from the top of the below board:
https://www.visualmicro.com/forums/YaBB.pl?board=VS_ARDUINO_EXT_RELEASES

If you haven't installed one of the forum releases before, further help is below:
Documentation - See Section 2. Install Visual Micro

Thank you for the fast response. The main problem is solved in 20.07.08.13. I can use vector of strings as a return type. The other minor issue is that 'using' doesn't work?

When I include
#include <vector>
#include <string> 
and use:
using std::vector;
using std::string;
or using namespace std;
and
CODE:
vector<std::string> split(const std::string& str, const std::string& delim)
{
    std::vector<std::string> tokens;
    return tokens;
}

VectorTest1.ino: 7:1: error: 'vector' does not name a type
CODE:
std::vector<std::string> split(const std::string& str, const std::string& delim)
{
    std::vector<std::string> tokens;
    return tokens;
}

Compilation ok, no error

The same for string
CODE:
std::vector<string> split(const std::string& str, const std::string& delim)
{
    std::vector<std::string> tokens;
    return tokens;
}

ERROR:

Would it be possible to re-send the example solution and fresh build log (also enable the vMicro > Compile > Show Build properties as shown in the yellow box at the top)?

I'm struggling to replicate the latest issue on my machine at present, so hopefully the additional information will reveal something I'm missing.

Thanks for the output. The output shows that the serial usb deugger is enabled. Please switch the tool bar from Debug to Release to avoid use of the Serial object (which your code prevents from working)

Thank you
