BTHome.cpp:7:6: error: no declaration matches 'void BTHome::begin(String, bool, const uint8_t*, bool)'

Hi ! First, thank you for the code. I'm trying to use this, but getting the following error:

/home/feiticeir0/Documents/Arduino/BTHome/BTHome.ino: In function 'void setup()':
/home/feiticeir0/Documents/Arduino/BTHome/BTHome.ino:24:27: error: call of overloaded 'begin(const char [8])' is ambiguous
   bthome.begin(DEVICE_NAME);
                           ^

exit status 1

Compilation error: call of overloaded 'begin(const char [8])' is ambiguous

Per instructions, without encryption, I've commented out DEFINE_ENCRYPTION and BIND_KEY...

The line that gets red in the editor is this one:

bthome.begin(DEVICE_NAME);

Thank you

@countrysideboy what could be here wrong?

[bineagu]

you can replace the line bthome.begin(DEVICE_NAME); with bthome.begin(DEVICE_NAME,false, "", false);

[feiticeir0]

you can replace the line bthome.begin(DEVICE_NAME); with bthome.begin(DEVICE_NAME,false, "", false);

Thank you . I did try some, but none worked. Will try and post the result. Thank you

[countrysideboy]

try bthome.begin("DIY-Sensor"); or String DEVICE_NAME = "DIY-sensor";

It maybe related to the compiler judgment of char arrays and strings.
