Platformio-vscode-ide: Arduino.h: No such file or directory

[leobel96]

Hello. I've the last version of PlatformIO for VScode and I've noted an issue. If I create a new project for a board (for example Digispark USB) and then I compile it everything is ok. If I change the board in "platformio.ini" to something different (for example Arduino UNO) I obtain the following error:

src\main.cpp:1:21: fatal error: Arduino.h: No such file or directory

compilation terminated.
*** [.pioenvs\uno\src\main.o] Error 1

It seems like Platformio doesn't find Arduino.h library.

Please remove %USERHOME%/.platformio folder and start build again.

I've already done it but nothing changed

Please share your platformio.ini here.

I've understood the problem: I've always to explicit framework = arduino even if it is the only framework a board supports.

Can I close this issue?

[leobel96]

Yes but is it normal that I've always to explicit it even if a board supports only that framework?

If you plan to use Arduino API, framework = arduino is required. Otherwise, you will need to use native API or Assembly.
