Problems compiling on Arduino ...

[femuruy]

Hi guys, i am trying to compile a version of R120 on Arduino, tried it on 2 machines, one with a fresh arduino install and one with an existing one and get the same error...

On trying to compile i get:

_P016_IR:6: error: 'IRrecv' does not name a type

refered to _P016_IR.ino 2nd line:

Code: Select all

IRrecv *irReceiver;

Any ideas? IRremoteESP8266.h is installed as a lib ...

Thank you in advance!!!

As far as I remember R120 requires an outdated version of the IR library; using a newer one will lead to compiler error as you are experiencing...

EDIT: just verified and indeed 120/148 compiles with IRLib 1.0.0, while 2.0.0 requires IRLib 1.2.0

Brilliant! that did the trick, had to downgrade to lowest version available on Arduino IDE (1.1.1)
Thanks

Hi people. nice to meet you.
I'm triyng to compile espeasy.ino with p115.ino but I found all the time this error : "IRrecv *irReceiver;"
Me too use R120 and ARDUINO IDE 1.8.6. more I copied libreries from R120 zip file and I copied into dir arduino libreries.
I don't understand the way you solved....

can you please explain what libreries I have to download and what I have to replace?
Thanks in advance
Wait for reply....
bye bye
