Dear all

I try to use the latest Mingw and even the toolchain is detected correctly:

I get error at compile (MsBuild)

Can you please help ?

Hi,

Please try restarting Visual Studio. If it doesn’t help, please let us know how did you import the toolchain (automatic installation via VisualGDB, manual import, copied the XML file, etc.) and whether the toolchain is shown in the VisualGDB Package Manager or the toolchain selector in the wizard.

Hello

It was MSbuild project

I restarted and i get the same error

Strangely if i make a new gnu make project with this compiler it works . If i convert it to msbuild i get the error.

Hi,

Strange. The MSBuild-based projects use a different mechanism for locating the toolchain property sheets, although it should be automatically synchronized to the mechanism used for GNU Make.

Could you please share your %LOCALAPPDATA%\VisualGDB\FindToolchain.props file and the .vcxproj file so we could check for possible causes of this?
