Visual studio libraries link source. Question [SOLVED]

Print Post  
Hello everyone!
I have a question about libraries including. 
I have used VS2019 with plugin visual micro before and it was OK. So I had to change my OS, after this i put again VS and VM plugin. So now i had a little problem... 
Earlier i used the link to AVR libs in my project, for example, like 
   #include <EEPROM.h>                ( its AVR libs, not arduino libs ). 
But now the compiler return me an error , and write it didnt find this libs. So i must write full link on a disk. 
   #include <C:\Program files(x86)\Arduino\hardware\arduino\avr\libraries\EEPROM\src\EEPROM.h>
I suffered for a long time, I thought that the problem was something else, before i guess about full link.
Best regards, Stas  Smiley

Hi

It is not valid to use paths with Arduino library #includes. The problem is most likely related to configuration such as if you have the No IDE option selected, or an Installed IDE and which board type is selected. 

Please provide the information requested in the yellow box above so we can see your config. Then the answer should be easy.

Thanks

Thank you for reply.

But i didnt understand which yellow box do You mean.
About IDE: i chose "Arduino 1.6/1.8" the source link is correct.  In Arduino IDE the project is compiling right same without full link.



UPD: with 

Code (C++)
Select All

#include <EEPROM.h>
#include <iarduino_RTC.h>
#include <LiquidCrystal_I2C.h>
#include <Wire.h>


Code
Select All

Sorry for i make you write about this Build properties  Smiley I understand that you write about this in many themes again and again... Roll Eyes

I've attached 2 files, with error and without error. 

So as i understoood visual micro try to find libs in a %Users%/Documents/Arduino/libraries instead in C:/Program files(x86)/Arduino... But i don't know how to change it, or make to find from 2 places and rewrite from main folder.

Great thanks. Yes, this folder is called the "Arduino sketchbook libraries" folder, adding libraries to the folder are treated as overrides but there are a few eceptions.

Please post the library.properties file found in this folder.
C:/Users/Scientist/Documents/Arduino/libraries/EEPROM

Then remove or rename the folder. After that click "vMicro>general>reload toolchains" or restart the ide.

When we see your library properties we will know if the EEPROM from sketchbook libraries has been detected for valid reason or not.

After we resolve the issue we can also discuss an easier way to use specific arduino libraries and different versions of the same library within different projects. generally arduino is weak in this area but visual micro does offer some useful extras. However let's make it work the way it should first.

Thanks

But there are no libraries.properties... Huh

Do I need to compile the project in Arduino IDE? to create this file?

No that's fine. It just means it is an old format library (v1 format). 

I suggest you remove it. It does not contain the methods you are trying to use in your code. Then we will fallback to the version included with the toolchain.

We will try this in the arduino ide to see what priority it gives to that combination of libraries.

Yeah. It works when i've remove folder with libraries: "%USERS%/Documents/Arduino/libraries".

So Visual Micro have parameters from Arduino IDE. But Arduino IDE can rewrite libs, but VM cant?

No, this is how the Arduno IDE works. 

We have retested this and both the Arduino IDE and Visual Micro use the same logic to discover libraries.

When downloading a library youself it will be placed in your sketch book libraries folder. Libraries in that folder override the ones provided by the hardware or ide if the libraries have the same architecture specification. 

Does this make sense?

Hah) OK. Thank you...)  Oh, this Arduino IDE... Grin

I think the problem is solved

Thank you again for the detailed answer.

Great, in the future take a look at the shared library projects in Visual Micro. That allows you to take any arduino library, put it wherever you want. Each Visual Micro projects can then Reference that specific library, instead of using the Arduino rules. 

With libraries as shared projects, the library code stays the same, your own code stays the same but you get to decide the specific library location for each project. Obviously the arduino IDE will still use the original library location, therefore you loose compatibility with the Arduino IDE.
