[Solved] Can't compile PrintEx library

jsantosrico · October 3, 2017, 4:42pm

Hi,

I’m having trouble to compile the PrintEx library. I open the example and try to compile it but I get the error I pasted at the end (with verbose output). I’m using a Sodaq ONE, and I have the latest versions of the IDE and all the relevant libraries and boards. As I said, any of the example code from the library fails to compile, it complains about va list not being declared. It compiles under AVR (arduino Uno), but doesn’t for the Zero.

Can somebody lend me a hand?

The va_list type is defined in cstdarg. On the AVR platform this seems to be included by default, on the SAMD platform this is not the case.

Simple add this to your sketch or library:

#include <cstdarg>

Hi,

Thanks for your reply, and sorry for taking this much time to come back to you. As a matter of fact, I had that library already included for another function, but I still can’t compile. This is the error:

It could be something to do with the order that Arduino compiles the libraries.

Can you try modifying PrintEx.h and add the required include before any others.

Hi,

I did as you suggested and it still complained about the same issue in two or three other libraries that are called by PrintEX.h, so I added the include on them too, which from my understanding should not be necessary, but anyway, now it compiles. Thanks!

It probably is related to the order in which the Arduino toolchain compiles the required files.

It might be worth making a request to get that header included into the Arduino SAMD core, as I can imagine other people may run into this issue as well.

Good idea,

I did a search on #include <cstdarg> on the all the library files, and saw that it is included in the zero, but obviously, they don’t include it for the Sodaq.

In Global.h:

    #ifdef ARDUINO_SAMD_ZERO //ARDUINO_ARCH_SAMD
        #include <cstdarg>
    #endif````

So I added

#ifdef ARDUINO_SODAQ_ONE //ARDUINO_ARCH_SAMD
    #include <cstdarg>
#endif

and now it’s working without requiring to edit any other files other than global.h.

Thanks for the help!
