[SOLVED] mega-20210503 doesn't compile on Arduino 1.8.15

#1 Post by diyprojectz » 01 Aug 2021, 12:35

Followed instructions from:

https://espeasy.readthedocs.io/en/lates ... sy-sources

I just need P065 (DFPLayer Mini) on 1M ESP-01S, no other changes made. Tried Arduino 1.8.13 and 1.8.15, doesn't compile, produces this error:

At the reported line nrs isn't such a statement.
Can you post a bit more context? ArduinoIDE sometimes messes up the line numbers in reporting compile errors.
Are you sure you have the current sources?

I just followed the instructions to the letter. Created Arduino portable installation, added esp8266 to board manager, selected GenericESP8266 module with 1MB flash size. Copied lib and src contents according to instruction. Renamed Custom-sample.h into Custom.h, uncommented the line for desired plugin, uncommented /#define USE_CUSTOM_H in ESPEasy_common.h so that Custom.h is used. Pressed Verify/Compile and after a while got the errors in question.

With context I meant the surrounding lines so I can see where you're getting the error.

I did compare it with the latest source and I suggest to use the latest source as it is more stable regarding WiFi reconnects.

Looks like you're using esp8266/Arduino core 3.0.x instead of core 2.7.4
Can you please check this?

Also the selected flash layout will give the next build error as we're never going to fit in 470 kB.
Please select 128k SPIFFS, the rest for sketch size.

This all sounds like a good motivation to push further on using VSCode or Atom with PlatformIO as the default platform for ESPEasy...

I was indeed using newer version. Managed to compile and upload without errors using 2.7.4 , thank you! Didn't notice 2.7.4 requirement of esp8266 in the docs...

I'd love to, but PlatformIO seem to require setting Windows ExecutionPolicy to Unrestricted, which is unacceptable for me.

The core 3.0.x is only available since a few weeks now and I do have a pull request pending to be able to use the new core.
The reason I have not yet merged it, is because each build feels somewhat like a hit-or-miss whether it is stable.
Not sure yet what is causing it.


I may have to take another look at the need to alter the execution policy to use PlatformIO/VS code.
I do remember it was needed a long time ago, but I'm not sure anymore why it was needed and thus also not sure if it is still needed.
It is possible it can run without, but makes frequent use a bit tedious as it may not start the Python virtual env automatically. But like I said, I may have to look into it.
This is a bit tricky though, as I may need to run it on a clean Windows install to test it.

@TD-er thank you very much! Your help allowed me to finally move my project from NodeMCU/Wemos D1 Mini to much more compact ESP-01S boards, I am super grateful!

I don't recall having to change that setting after switching to my new laptop, last December, so @diyprojectz, I'd suggest to try and install VSCode/PlatformIO to see if it works for you (VSCode can be installed in Portable mode perfectly fine).
