I'm trying to choose an IDE for arduino development. I installed both Eclipse and AVR Studio 5. And configured them using the instruction on the Arduino site (for Eclipse) and those two tutorials (AVR Freaks, EngBlaze) for the AVR Studio.

I've written a simple project in Eclipse. The code compiles and work as expected when uploaded to the Arduino (Atmega2560). I then used the same code and created an AVR Studio project.

On AVR Studio my code compiles just fine (so it seems) but when I upload it to the board (using the same avrdude configuration) the board only flashes the L led (pin 13) at a what seems like 1 second rate.

Ideas anyone?

    If you're looking for someone with psychic powers to debug this for you then there may be a more appropriate site (http://psychics.stackkexchange.com ?). Otherwise you may just have to post your code. – Paul R Jan 24 '12 at 13:49
  • psychics.stackkexchange.com not electronics.stackexchange.com ? – Leeron Jan 24 '12 at 13:50

    psychics.stackkexchange.com was an ironic comment. we need the code. we cannot magically determine why it doesn't work when we don't even know what it is that's not working. – Stefan Paul Noack Jan 24 '12 at 15:00
  • Joke's on me.. I read it as "physics". I didn't post any code as I believe it's a configuration problem and not a code problem. I'll try it with some minimal code and get back to you guys – Leeron Jan 24 '12 at 15:03
  • There are many things that might cause this such as incorrect mcu config properties or even the wrong version of avrgcc etc. If you have time then try the free [Arduino Plugin for Visual Studio](http://www.visualmicro.com/) Pro. The plugin makes things fully compatible with the Arduino IDE and is as easy to use. No config settings required, it just works! NB: VS Pro can be obtained [free](http://www.visualmicro.com/page/Offer-Visual-Studio-Professional-Free-For-3-Years.aspx) for 3 years. – Visual Micro Oct 21 '12 at 20:48
