I have been using PlatformIO for a few days so far without too much difficulty. But I had imported an Arduino sketch and I noticed that the file in the src folder main.ino was being updated to .cpp and then disappearing. So I changed it to .cpp in my windows directory and then the fun started. Si…

[image] joatmon13: When I opened the projects, I selected the higher level directory, “Project” which opened all of the sub directories at once. That’s what I thought might have been happening. Glad you got it sorted out. I usually open my projects with File->Open Folder, then navigate to th…

[image] joatmon13: and when I try to compile a specific file How do you compile one specifc file? Or do you mean the whole PlatformIO project? What extensions in VSCode have you installed? “C/C++” by austin, by chance?

Hi Max, I am just using 3 extensions C/C++; Live Server and PlatformIO. When I mean compile, I just open the .cpp file in src and then click on the compile icon on the footer toolbar. But the intellisence doesn’t recognize the header files, in some projects not even arduino.h. Thank you for your…

I think I might know what’s happened here. You renamed the *.ino file to *.cpp in the imported sketch folder and everything stopped compiling? If so, add this line to the top of the file formerly known as *.ino: #include "Arduino.h" The letter case is significant by the way, upper case ‘A’. Do …

Hi Norm, in fact the main.cpp already had the #include “Arduino.h”, as it was one of the first things I understood when migrating from Arduino. What really puzzled me is seeing the compiler compiling a different project than the one I had open. EG So I have 5 projects in my workspace. I am working…

It might be safer to use the more explicit PlatformIO side bar -> project tasks -> Default (or your target environment) -> Build instead of the build button in the toolbar. Does that change anything? Also, doing a project tasks -> Miscellaneous -> Rebuild IntelliSense might help.

[image] maxgerhardt: Also, doing a project tasks → Miscelleneous → Rebuild IntelliSense might help. For some strange reason, that option does not appear for me. I just see under Miscellaneous PlatformIO Core CLI Clone Git Project New Terminal Upgrade PlatformIO Core Do I need somehow to i…

You’re looking in the Quick Access window, not the project tasks [grafik]

OK, I seem to be going round in circles. I have tried removing all the projects and reimporting them again, but I still end up with compiling just one project, when I am working on a different project. Whether I use the menu on the LHS or the toolbar at the bottom, same result. I open main.cpp on…

joatmon13:

While I was there I tried “update all” and got this warning, is this significant?
