Intellisense conversion does not work

I have several solutions where the conversion does not work.

Output of the conversion:
Code

1. Scanning ESP32.vMicroTest for Projects...
	Identified 1 to convert.
2. Scanning Solution Configuration Mapping....
3. Amending Solution Configuration Mapping....

4. Updating Arduino Compatible Projects...

Unable to get output directory for this project. Does this project contain a definition for the current solution configuration and platform?
Falscher Parameter. (Ausnahme von HRESULT: 0x80070057 (E_INVALIDARG))


After this, I get a yellow heading in VS that tells:
Current solution contains incorrect configurations mappings. It may cause projects to not work correctly. Open the Configuration Manager to fix them. Open Configuration Manager

I will send a reduced example to info@visualmicro.com

Thanks

Additional Information: when I create a new solution everything is fine including the "Arduino" behind the project name.

Thanks for the report, and detail.

Can you send us all of the files from the "ProjectFolder\.vs\VMLinuxConvertBackup" folder as a ZIP, either as an attachment here or via email (with a link to this forum thread)?

Can you also confirm which version of Visual Micro you have installed? (Extensions > Manage Extensions > Installed, and select vMicro, the full version is shown on the right hand side).

Hi Simon,

thank you for the files. They work as expected.

I have added the Debug configuration to my original files to see, if that would fix the problem.
The conversion worked but I got an error at the end.
But the project was OK, showed "Arduino" and worked as expected.

But doing unload reload on the project show the error again.

But anyway, one step further. 

Thanks

Thanks for confirming the files supplied work as expected.

To get it to work we added the entries to the SLN File for the Debug configuration, which should be added the same as the release ones but replacing Release with Debug, in both the Pre and Post Solution sections.

We have improved the error message in the upcoming release to give more indication of the issue, and to direct users to send us the files (as you have) so we can investigate.

We will further improve this in the future so it self-resolves.

Does that mean that I simply should fix nothing and wait for a new release?
I have several solutions with the same problem.
I guess they are copy of a copy of a copy ...  Smiley

We are still working on the full fix which will self-resolve the situation, and when this is available we will update this thread.

To amend the SLN Files should be simple enough, then they will convert as expected with the current version of the software.

The edits we made are highlighted in green in the below screenshot from your SLN file, but if you have further trouble before the fixed version is available let us know.

Update: Resolved

Thanks for the explanation. The topic is not urgent.
I will try it with another solution and /or perhaps simply wait for the next release.

Thank you for investigating and fixing.
