Problem with compiling ESPEasy_v2.0-20180227 and arduino-1.8.5

#1 Post by ManS-H » 27 Feb 2018, 17:17

What do i wrong?

1 - install of arduino-1.8.5
2 - Preferences: http://arduino.esp8266.com/versions/2.4 ... index.json
Here i installed the 2.3.0 version
3 - Download from GitHub: ESPEasy_v2.0-20180227 and extract the files
4 - Copy from source/lib all the files to C:\Program Files (x86)\Arduino\libraries
5 - Copy from source/src all the files to C:\Users\Herman\Documents\Arduino\ESPEasy
6 - Start Arduino 1.8.5, File-Open-ESPEasy.ino and then i pressed the button "Verify"

And this what i see:

WARNING: Category 'LED' in library CHT16K33 LED Matrix Library is not valid. Setting to 'Uncategorized'
WARNING: Category 'Input' in library MechInputs is not valid. Setting to 'Uncategorized'
WARNING: Category 'Input' in library SerialSensors is not valid. Setting to 'Uncategorized'
WARNING: library LiquidCrystal_I2C claims to run on (avr) architecture(s) and may be incompatible with your current board which runs on (esp8266) architecture(s).

My question, can i ignore this messages or what is the solution

I would 1st delete all devices I don't need/use from the src folder (.ino files). Restart Arduino IDE and look if the warnings are less/gone now....
2nd: check for updates of the libraries.

vader, i tried several things. Removed arduino-1.8.5 and installed 1.6.12 what was described in the wiki. Same result.

WARNING: Category 'LED' in library CHT16K33 LED Matrix Library is not valid. Setting to 'Uncategorized'
WARNING: Category 'Input' in library MechInputs is not valid. Setting to 'Uncategorized'
WARNING: Category 'Input' in library SerialSensors is not valid. Setting to 'Uncategorized'
WARNING: library LiquidCrystal_I2C claims to run on (avr) architecture(s) and may be incompatible with your current board which runs on (esp8266) architecture(s).

But 3 of this warnings come from libraries from the source file of ESPEasy_v2.0-20180227, that sounds strange for me.

It is a lot easier to work with PlatformIO + Atom, since then you have more control over what is being used.

With the Arduino IDE, you'd better create a "portable" installation and only install the absolute minimum plugins in there (ESP8266 version 2.3.0) and copy the libraries directory to the folder in your portable install where the libraries are installed.
Do not try to upgrade the libraries, since some of the included libraries have been modified a little or just kept at an older version known to work.

Thanks for your answers, Arduino IDE i used several years, but i will give the PlatformIO + Atom platform a try. First thing to do is reading the wiki. :D
