Cant compile M5ez.h



  • Hi, I am a relative beginner to arduino, M5Stack and M5ez. I was trying to use M5ez in a test project however if I use #include <M5ez.h> then the sketch won't compile. Even the basic Hellow_World example included with the M5ez won't compile for me.

    I have follow all steps in https://github.com/M5ez/M5ez
    and installed both M5ez and ezTime library
    I have selected the correct board.

    Now, I turn to you, the masters of M5ez. What did I do wrong?

    ---------------------------------------------- I get the following error ------------------------------------

  • Hello @EricR

    you are not doing anything wrong. The issue is that the M5ez library has been written a while ago when Arduino ESP32 framework v1.x was the latest. However today we have Arduino ESP32 framework v2.x which moved some stuff around and by doing so broke some things.
    I see three options to go forward:

    • adapt the M5ez to the latest Arduino ESP32 framework v2.x
    • use Arduino ESP32 framework v1.x
    • persuade Rop (the maintainer) to fix M5ez
      The last option might be difficult as I haven't seen Rop in the M5Stack forums for a long time.

    BTW: in M5ez.h there are some #defines - you probably don't need all of them. For instance disabling WPS like this #define M5EZ_WPSx already reduces the errors.

    Thanks
    Felix



  • Hi @felmue and thank for you're quick respond

    I was wondering about the framework. To the best of my understanding do I use the 1.8.19 framework. It is what the upper left corner tells at least. Should M5ez not work for me?

    Do I have to reinstall Arduino IDE to "downgrade" to a framework that works?

    Thanks again for you're time



  • Hello @EricR

    sorry if I wasn't clear - I meant the Arduino ESP32 framework. (I've clarified my previous post.)

    The Arduino ESP32 framework is installed via the Boards Manager. Normally the latest available version is installed. But any version can be selected and up-/downgraded to.

    Please be aware that when you downgrade the Arduino ESP32 framework in the Arduino IDE, that this will affect all your ESP32 related projects, which might then fail to compile due to a too old Arduino ESP32 framework version.

    BTW: 1.8.19 is the version of the Arduino IDE you are using.

    Thanks
    Felix



  • Hello @EricR

    without downgrading the Arduino ESP32 framework (e.g. using v2.0.3) I was able to compile M5ez with the following three modifications.

    • In M5ez.h disable WPS by replacing#define M5EZ_WPS with #define M5EZ_WPSx.
    • In M5ez.cpp replace info.disconnected.reason with info.wifi_sta_disconnected.reason.
    • In M5ez.cpp replace SYSTEM_EVENT_STA_DISCONNECTED with ARDUINO_EVENT_WIFI_STA_DISCONNECTED.

    Thanks
    Felix



  • Hi @felmue and thanks. This helps a lot.

    Thanks a lot! I am starting again to program for M5Stack after a long time and I was having problems compiling M5ez and understanding where the problem was, but you solved this for me!

    Thanks! Just like Crazyhorse I came back to my M5 after about a year break. Your info saved a noob days of misery!!!
