ESP8266 problem

[Lightwell-bg]

RTClib@1.4.2 version doesn't work with ESP8266

fatal error: avr/interrupt.h: No such file or directory

[edgar-bonet]

Please, provide the detailed steps to reproduce the error.

There are nine example sketches bundled with the library. All of them have been successfully compiled for ESP8266 by the automated test script.

[Lightwell-bg]

Before update to 1.4.2 all was ok.
After I cant compile sketch (fatal error: avr/interrupt.h: No such file or directory in USI_TWI_Master.cpp) .
I use PLATFORMIO.

Try removing the last line from RTClib/library.properties:

diff --git a/library.properties b/library.properties
index 44a50c4..97b70be 100644

Alternatively, try this version: it's just 1.4.2 that line removed.

Tell us if it fixes the issue for you. If that's the case, I'll submit a pull request.

@ivankravets hihi - taggin you to see another example that platform-unique dependencies cause compilation issues. tinywirem is referenced here:

RTClib/RTClib.cpp

Line 45 in a40bfbc

#ifdef __AVR_ATtiny85__

Hi @ladyada, thanks for tagging me. Yes, yes, this is a known issue. There are a few solutions:

1. Using library.json and set build.libLDFMode to chain+. However, I remember that you would like to have only library.properties in a repository. See solution 2
2. Update LDF mode per PlatformIO project as described here https://docs.platformio.org/en/latest/projectconf/section_env_library.html#lib-ldf-mode

We have some ideas about how to improve our Library Dependency Finder but it will need some efforts. The current LDF behavior is to follow your declarations. It allows PlatformIO Core to build project crazy fast.

It doesnt work

[ivankravets]

@Lightwell-bg does it work if you add to platformio.ini

[env]
lib_ldf_mode = chain+

[Lightwell-bg]

lib_ldf_mode = chain+

Sorry, and it doesnt work

@valeros, please help

[valeros]

Hi @Lightwell-bg ! The error is caused by a misleading dependency specified in library.properties (TinyWireM is not supposed to work with esp8266). The best solution is to add the following lines to your platformio.ini:

[env:myenv]
framework = arduino
platform = espressif8266
board = ...

# explicitly ignore TinyWireM
lib_ignore =
    TinyWireM
# Resolve hidden dependencies under ifdef
lib_ldf_mode = deep+

[Lightwell-bg]

Hi @valeros
Thank you, it's work.

[rgl]

Isn't there a better way to solve this issue?

Using lib_ignore in our platform.ini file feels dirty.

[ivankravets]

Hey @ladyada ,

Would you like to have library.json which resolves these conflicts? We will explain in manifest when to use particular dependencies. You don't need to maintain it later, just increment "version" field (the same what you do for library.properties)

[ladyada]

hihi @ivankravets - as other library developers such as @PaulStoffregen have mentioned, folks usually forget or neglect to update both on the libs they maintain. adafruit/DHT-sensor-library#118 (comment)

as more libraries add dependencies, some of which are for specific platforms, we recommend only compiling code that is referenced/included in the projects.
