	Not been working on a project for a couple of months, recently updated vMicro at least once. What was compiling no longer compiles in VS. Here's what I get: Code (C++) Compiling 'UnitF_BathroomSensor_V2' for 'LOLIN(WEMOS) D1 R2 & mini' Build Folder: "file:///D:/VMTemp/UnitF_BathroomSensor_V2/esp8266_d1_mini/Release" UnitF_BathroomSensor_V2.ino:36: In file included from FastLED.h:14: note #pragma message FastLED version 3.003.003 # pragma message "FastLED version 3.003.003" FastLED.h:65: In file included from UnitF_BathroomSensor_V2.ino:36: from fastspi.h:130: note #pragma message No hardware SPI pins defined.

	More information... Including MAP files in case this helps.

	Thanks for the report, So we can understand further, could you attach the build output, with the Verbose and Show Build Properties set as shown at the top of this page?

	Thanks for the detail, it appears there is an override in the VMicro > Project Properties > Configuration Extra Flags Project, set to -O0. Does it improve if this is removed?

I tried 'Disable Optimization Project=True' and it compiles. See output. Haven't really got a clue about these settings, never touch them. What have I done?

	Update: While the code now compiles, it's banjaxed - I'm using RGB LEDs and they are not being controlled correctly. I'm compiling via Arduino IDE without any issues. Project and IDE settings attached

	Would it be possible to attach the log from the Arduino IDE, with the verbose preference enabled?

	Attached is output from the Arduino IDE

	If this helps, I'm experiencing issues with other code as well. I'm currently working on another project using FastLED library. It's used in the project already discussed - the project that built using vMicro when I tinkered with Disable Optimization Project but where the LED control was not working properly. This compiles without error but the LED's it controls do not function correctly. As with the project already discussed, it compiles and operates as expected in Arduino IDE. I'm going to try to roll back the vMicro extension and verify what works.

	Update: Installed the following in order... Visual.Micro.Arduino.Studio_20_07_08_3 Visual.Micro.Arduino.Studio_20_06_30_0 Visual.Micro.Arduino.Studio_20_06_18_0 Visual.Micro.Arduino.Studio_1911_28_3 The last installed produced correct build - I picked it because this was around the last date I successfully revised the project. Happy to try later versions but can you give me a clue as to which I should try.

	Thanks for the updates and detail here! Would it be possible to attach the build log from the version which has worked, so we can compare with the others?

	Thanks for the log. It appears this is for a different project to the initial report, and does not include the FastLED Library in the working compilation, but it does use the Time and ButtonInput Libraries. Would it be possible to email us the project, or perform a clean on the "UnitF_BathroomSensor_V2" project and attach the full build log again on the older version?

	Further information: I've identified the latest version in which the project compiles a functional binary... Visual Micro 2002.7.0 The later version produces screwy binary... Visual Micro 20.02.16 sp1 I've attached logs for build from previous versions and the failing one so you can see what is different.

Yes and no. Its a different project exhibiting the same symptoms. And it does include FastLED and ButtonInput in the project, but perhaps there is a bug there too if they do not appear in the output. If it helps, the identifiable failure in compiling (if it does compile) is the functionality of FastLED which controls RGB LEDs. The data being sent to the LEDs is incorrect and the LEDs function erratically or with different colours. There may be other issues but this one was obvious. Debugging the first project "UnitF_BathroomSensor_V2" is difficult because its installed remotely. But for you...

I'll go thru the whole process again with the first project and send you logs for comparison.

	Thanks again for the detail and diagnosis with this issue. At present there is a vMicro > Debugger > Compiler Optimization, which is set to "No Project Optimization" from the output. If this option is set back to "Default Optimization" then the project should build as it did previously. (The reason this has changed is due to a fix to the optimization which ensured it was applied, which did not happen when it seemed to work previously)
