Hi,

I'm using Visual Micro with Visual Studio and a Teensy 3.1. I've managed to get it generally working using the guidelines for Teensy for Microsoft Visual Studio http://www.visualmicro.com/page/Teensy-for-Microsoft-Visual-Studio.aspx.

However I have been unable to find the correct "Defines - Project" settings to setup the Teensy as a serial + keyboard + mouse + joystck device (like I am able to do using Teensyduino). The help page states that "these standard Teensy defines can be found in the boards.txt file".

I found a define USB_SERIAL_HID however when I run with this define, the Teensy doesn't show up as a standard HID device in the Windows Game Controllers Control Panel Applet. When I compile the same sketch in Teensyduino with the USB type set to serial + keyboard + mouse + joystck it all works as expected.

I would be extremely grateful if someone could offer help on the correct project defines to use so that the teensy will show up as a hid device when compiling with Visual Micro.

Many thanks,

Tristan

Hi Tim, thank you for your quick reply!

Your advice re comparing the two compiler outputs really helped.

Setting the project defines as F_CPU=96000000;USB_SERIAL_HID;LAYOUT_US_ENGLISH did in fact work but helped me uncover the issue as to why the project was not building in Visual Studio.

Comparing the two compiler outputs I noticed that none of the .c files in Arduino\hardware\teensy\cores\teensy3 seem to be compiled when compiling with Visual Studio whereas they are when compiling with Teensyduino.

As a temporary hack renaming usb_joystick.c to usb_joystick.cpp got my project compiling correctly, but if you have any insight into why the *.c files aren't compiled when using Visual Micro + Visual Studio I'd be keen to know.

Hi tristan,

The .c files should be included in the compile. Please click "Build>Clean Solution" then run a compile and email the resulting output.

Thanks
