Compile Behavior

So I have recently upgraded to the latest version of VM and I am dealing with some of the changes that have been made over time. In the past if I was working on a project in VS and made changes to some files in the the arduino library I would, at the most, shut down VS and restart the project for the changes to take effect.

Now the only way I have been able to have the changes take effect is create a whole new project. Otherwise I get error messages associated with a library that as been deleted and is no longer "included" in the project, which seems nuts to me. This was the same for when I updated the pins_arduino.h files the the arduino installation directory. I continued to get the same error messages until I recreated the project.

Is there a way to recompile the code from scratch without having to recreate the project with a different file name? I am not very VS/VM savay.

Hi,

Thanks for the post.

First of all the menu "Build>Clean Solution" clears the compiler cache for the current project which will avoid needing to recreate the project.

"Build>Rebuild" clears the project and library compiler cache which will help if you have only edited libraries.

Info

The change detection system should automatically be detecting the changes you describe so I will do some testing. You can  switch the new change detection off and revert to the older slightly less intelligent system but I suggest we look into the issue first because the older system was a little slower.
