Compile error when using visual micro in VS2013 - MultiWii - SOLVED

I failed to use the visual micro to compile multiwii 2.4 original code. The compiling output information shows:
MultiWii.cpp.o:In function `go_disarm()'
MultiWii.cpp.o:In function `go_disarm()'
MultiWii.cpp.o:In function `go_disarm()'

Error creating .elf

The same code is now problem when using Arduino IDE. And the library modified has been set false.

Please change the toolbar from "Debug/windows debug" to "Release" and try again

Please tell me which arduino ide version?

Which Visual Studio version?

Where the "original" multiwii source code is?

Hi,
I have the same problem, I get tons of this error:

MultiWii.cpp.o:In function `annexCode()
MultiWii.cpp:multiple definition of `annexCode()
ga328\MultiWii.cpp:370: first defined here

The software compiles correctly in the Arduino IDE.

The MultiWii source files are located here:

https://code.google.com/archive/p/multiwii/

Nevertheless the visual micro compiler works with an empty test sketch, so the installation should be fine...

Thanks for the link to the MultiWii source.

I got the same problem. I will look into it thanks.

Hi, here they are (I don't really know how they have been created and which one is the one you want...).

Thanks a lot for your support, it is very kind from you!

Found the problem. 

Notice the project has a dummy MultiWii.ino and the actual code is in MultiWii.cpp.

Normally for Arduino the .ino files are joined together into MultiWii.cpp in the temp folder.

I will prevent the creation of the temp version of MultiWii.cpp if one already exists in a project.

Hopefully that isn't such a difficult job and won't take more than a day or so.

Ohhh great!
Then as a temporary fix can I just delete the .ino file? I tried but it complains that no sketch is found named "MultiWii" when attempting to create the solution...

I forgot, to compile the downloaded code you need to uncomment lines 50 and 135 (for example) on the config.h header!

Yes I found I has to set copter type and imu type.

You can't remove the .ino because that is how Visual micro and Arduino Ide knows it has a valid sketch project. Visual micro won't handle the compile without one.

I am just trying to change the order of things so that the .cpp in the porject overwrites the temp copy of the .cpp generated by Visual micro. Debug won't work initially but at least the standard project will build.

I found when things went wrong. 

Last quarter of last year Visual Visual micro supported adding code to folders within a project. This involves reading the "included project/solution explorer" files as opposed to simply looking in the current sketch/project folder for the source codes.

You can prove this temporarily by setting "tools>options>visual micro>compatibility>compile files in project"=False

Then the project should build properly again. It's annoying that it broke last year must have been annoying for any MultiWii users!!

Thanks a lot for the support you're giving. I have the pro version, so I also disable the "Allow local libraries" but it still doesn't work, even if I get different errors:

I think that's just the debugger interfering.

Switch the toolbar from "Debug/Local window debugger" to Release


+

I just published an update (1604.9.1) which allows you to leave the settings as they were. The project should compile.

I also just published a fix so it will work with those settings at their default = True.

Great. Thanks for the update.

Reviews in the Visual Studio gallery are always appreciated thanks

edit:

Thanks for the review and to @flankss I am sorry I didn't spot this when you reported last year
