Fix: Compile: Deep Search Cache failed if Board has no Variants (e.g. Teensy 3.5) Fix: Compile: Caching Failed when any core or library path contained spaces due to ReadAllLinesWithEncodingDotD() splitting on spaces as well (Reported Here and Here) Fix: Micro Explorer: Boards Manager: When using "Check For Updates" if new versions are added they are now correctly displayed at the top of the list as expected. Fix: Intellisense: Force E0338 Intellisense Errors to be Ignored for all Boards (Reported Here) Fix: Logging: Expose Full Solution Platform Name (e.g. ARM64) to logging for easier assistance for Intellisense Errors (vm.solution.platform_name) Fix: Serial Monitor: DTR/RTS are no longer persisted between sessions, and default to True (unless serial.disableDTR || serial.disableRTS are set in boards.txt configurations). Fix: Tools > Options no longer shows RTS/DTR configuration settings as ignored in the Serial Monitor change. Fix: OTA Upload: Network Upload Failed on Arduino Nano ESP32 due to 2.x upload tool standards not being implemented (Reported Here) Update: Deep Search Analysis added to Compiler Menu, to guide users to improved Deep Search Options for Lib In Sketch and Lib In Lib where available (Documentation Page) Update: Users can specify Intellisense Errors to ignore using vm.intellisense.ignore-error-codes=123 (for e.g. E0123), requires reload of IDE. |

Fix: Tools > Options > Always Include Project Folder Sources moved to new registry key with new default value of FALSE Update: Addition of Ensure All Files in Sketch Project to vMicro Menu (not Toolbar) Fix: Show/Hide Hidden Files removed from Toolbar Fix: Icons for ConvertToLinuxProject and Show/Hide Hidden Files resized to fit Fix: Ensure @Plot Charts' Y-Axis Rescales to suit data within visible range automatically Fix: Serial Debug @Plot Charts now load when just connecting the Serial Port after restarting Visual Studio with Serial Debug mode enabled and code running on board already VMBuilder: Added support for portable path |

Fix: Compiler: Not all files in the project folder were compiled (if not included in the Project) even when Tools > Options > vMicro > Compatability - Compile ALL Project Folder Sources was set to True (default). Setting now correctly obeyed (Reported Here) Fix: Consolidation of Debuggers and OpenOCD Version for all RP2040/2350 Boards (NOTE: Only PicoProbe/RpiDebugProbe work on 2350 currently) Fix: issue determining the file name when downloading board index package urls. Local paths and / web paths are better supported. Didn't cause an issue but the code was confusing. This applies to downloading and storing the page_*index.json files for board manager. VmBuilder did not default to including shared projects VmBuilder standardise names for the "close" and "closeOnError" command line args. Both are supported to avoid breakage for existing users - builder.close and -builder-close are both supported. Previously only the dash version was supported. CLI doc page has been updated and the released VMBuilder.zip has been updated. |

Update: Default Library_index.json compressed to XZ to save space in VSIX (Used for clean install users) Deep search: Defaults changed to look through all files., searching all lib and project sources, not just top-level and src/utils folder (same as Arduino IDE). vm.preproc.lib-search.lib-in-lib=all vm.preproc.lib-search.lib-in-sketch=all Deep Search: Removal of SCons Deep Search option, Defaults back to Gcc-E. |

The latest update offers improved build times while maintaining compatibility with Arduino build specifications. Visual Micro now uses a more intelligent caching method when searching for Arduino-compatible library headers, reducing unnecessary compiler work. This enhancement is particularly beneficial for slower toolchains like the ESP32. Updated Library and Package Index ensuring New users have fastest possible UX when installing boards/libraries. |
