I have an ESP8266 project that won't compile (it's fine under the Arduino IDE).

I am getting no code errors of my own. All libraries etc seem to be loaded fine, and the code isn't marked with any specific issues.

Under the Arduino IDE I had selected:
// Arduino esp8266 nodemcu development board WIFI enabled LUA ESP-12E GPIO PWM, II
// NodeMcu Lua ESP8266 ESP-12E Internet Development Board with USB for Arduino
// Board = NodeMCU 1.0 (ESP-12E Module), Flash = 4M (1M SPIFFS), IwIP variant = V2 pre-built (MSS=536), Cpu = 80MHz

I think I had selected the same or equivalent under VM.

Build output/error lists text files attached.

Thanks,

Ian.

We have finally managed to reproduce the issue.

In short it is the IDE Location on the vMicro > General > Configure IDE Locations, there is a trailing slash on the path to the arduino-1.8.19\ entry, which when combined with the command line, escapes the following double quote, causing the compilation issues you are seeing.

If you remove the trailing slash it should resolve the issue, and we will improve this area and update the thread when this is available.
