Hi All,

Since having Visual Micro, every now and then this error message occurs in my projects. 

Please see attached.

The problem causes the drop downs in the main code ino window, to go blank, then the error occurs multiple times in the Solutions window.

The only fix I have found is to create a new blank solution, copy and paste the code, add all the library's and associated files back in and then it works again.

I have however concluded that the problem occurs when I change, delete and add libraries. 

I have check the help files, searched online to see what I am doing to cause this, but I haven't found a solution. Its just happened again and its time I got it fixed!

Thanks.

Hi,

Thanks for replying.

Please find attached build properties. I didn't do this to begin with, as it has always happened, on all versions. Plus it has happened on just about all projects.

It would just be nice to know what triggers it so I cant make sure I do not do it! As stated in the original post, it seems to happen when I change libraries. For example this project, I am using Edge Impulse and building a model. This requires me to change the model in Edge Impulse and then rebuild the library. Once I did this, deleted the old library from the Arduino IDE (while Visual Studio was closed), readded the latest Edge Impulse library, it started to happen. This is what has finally led me to link the issue to changing libraries, but I could be wrong.

Hi,

Thanks for looking into this.

The latter of your comments was set, which I have now unset.

I have also removed the libraries form the Solutions Explorer, please see screen shot attached.

However, this hasn't solved the problem and the drop downs are still blank as per usual.

I have attached another log file for reference.

Hi Simon,

Yes, multiple times. 

As for the drop downs, please see attached.

Hi,

I presume you just meant that file and not the entire project, which I have attached.

Just to add to the mystery, upon opening the solution this morning, the drop downs are populated. However after I build the solution, the error message appears in Solution output window and the drop downs are no longer populated.

Thanks as always.

Christopher

Doh!

Now attached.

Hi,

Many thanks - it is working. However, can you tell me what I am doing wrong to cause this problem, as it happens on multiple projects? Or did your earlier requests solve it generally?

For reference you asked:

If you remove the Shared Project from your Solution in the Solution Explorer, it should stop the error from occuring.

It is also worth checking the vMicro > Add Library > Library Advanced > Create Shared Project When Including Libraries setting is OFF, which will stop vMicro automatically creating the Shared Projects when libraries are added from the Add Library Menu.

Thanks 

Thank you very much for your efforts.
