Arduino Libraries Not Found (Read 2855 times)

	Attempting to migrate from Arduino IDE to VS 2019 + Visual Micro. Visual Micro extension installed and I think reasonably configured, but it won't compile app due to libraries not found. This app compiles clean under Arduino IDE 1.8.13. The app only directly #includes 3 library files. These in turn include a bunch more. VM appears to find the directly included libraries and then craps out on all the rest. Screen shots attached. I would include more, but apparently limited to 2, will try more in next msg. Suggestions appreciated.

	Built project with "Show Build Properties" and "Verbose" compiler options set. Output file attached. Note that the "PubSubClient.h" library referenced at the end of the output text exists in ".../Arduino/libraries" and is found by the Arduino IDE.

	I see you have set a sketchbook folder in Visual Micro. That gives one potential difference with the Arduino IDE. If you don't set a sketchbook folder in Visual Micro then we use the same one the Arduino IDE uses. Use installed libraries are located in Sketchbook/libraries therefore the sketchbook location is important. To be sure, please open the Arduino ide, switch on file>preferences>verbose, build and then post the output as a .txt file. Thanks

	I deleted the sketchbook reference and that did the trick! Thanks much!
