ThisThread::sleep_for(var) issue

[JaMinsane]

When I imported the source code into mbedOS online compiler and then tried to compile. I got this error:

*Error: No matching literal operator for call to 'operator""ms' with argument of type 'unsigned long long' or 'const char ', and no matching literal operator template in "main.cpp", Line: 20, Col: 31**

I didn't change anything but It can't compile.

main.cpp

#include "mbed.h"

// Blinking rate in milliseconds
#define BLINKING_RATE     500ms

int main()
{
    // Initialise the digital pin LED1 as an output
    DigitalOut led(LED1);

    while (true) {
        led = !led;
        ThisThread::sleep_for(BLINKING_RATE);
    }
}

Thank you for raising this detailed GitHub issue. I am now notifying our internal issue triagers. Internal Jira reference: https://jira.arm.com/browse/IOTOSM-2045

I got the same error, but it compiled for me when I removed the "ms" from the BLINKING_RATE

Changed: #define BLINKING_RATE 500ms to #define BLINKING_RATE 500

Hi James, Thanks for reporting the issue. This issue caused by mbed import mbed-os-example-blinky command which gets invoked at the time of importing the source code into mbedOS online compiler, import command is importing an old version of mbed-os-5.15.4 instead of the latest released version. As the Chrono C++ functionality of passing Chrono duration like time with ms (500ms) suffix support is available from mbed-os-6.0.0.

Already we have an internal ticket https://jira.arm.com/browse/IOTOSM-278 to investigate mbed import command issue.

I will update here, once I have some information on the progress of that issue.

Thanks
