Move sketch to appropriately named subfolder #1
Conversation
The Arduino IDE requires that a sketch be located in a folder of the same name. Although the name of the repository does match the sketch name, when GitHub's popular Clone or download > Download ZIP feature is used to download a repository the branch/release/commit name is appended to the folder name, causing a mismatch. When opening a file that does not meet this sketch/folder name matching requirement the Arduino IDE presents a dialog: The file "MarantzVolumeMonitor.ino" needs to be inside a sketch folder named "MarantzVolumeMonitor". Create this folder, move the file, and continue? After clicking "OK" the Arduino IDE currently moves only the file MarantzVolumeMonitor.ino to the new folder, leaving behind the other source files. This causes compilation of the sketch to fail: MarantzVolumeMonitor-master\MarantzVolumeMonitor\MarantzVolumeMonitor.ino:1:27: fatal error: MarantzClient.h: No such file or directory #include "MarantzClient.h"

Ah, I see what you're looking for. I actually develop using Visual Studio and the Visual Micro add-in rather than the classic Arduino IDE. I can move things, but I need to update the .sln, the .vcxproj, and any other artifacts that Visual Micro requires to point to libraries. Let me switch this over to be an issue and I can take care of it. It might be a little bit since I'm in the middle of troubleshooting an issue I've found with the latest firmware update to my receiver not reliably serving data; I need to finish that up before I can rearrange the files. Thanks! |

I checked MarantzVolumeMonitor.sln, MarantzVolumeMonitor.vcxproj, and MarantzVolumeMonitor.vcxproj.filters and it looks like only MarantzVolumeMonitor.vcxproj needs to be changed. I believe I have updated all the paths: |

The thing is, I don't want the solution down in that folder. Don't worry, I'll take care of it. Like I said, I appreciate the work here, I just need to make sure it'll work for everyone. |

Sorry for the delay, this has been done. Thanks for your patience! |
