putting certificates in seperate file in arduino IDE

[shirish47]

Hi so I want to use this library but I want to store cert in a seperate AWS_cert.h file that I can add in code in Arduino IDE. and so I don't need to go to library folder and edit it every time I want to add another cert.

Can you suggest some way? though I tried it to comment aws_iot_cert.c in AWS_IOT.cpp and add aws_cert.h with code of aws_iot_cert.c but during compilation I get error

so its not linking to the library.

Ok I did it. I defined #include "AWS_cert.h" and put extern const char aws_root_ca_pem[] and other two with the certificate data and it worked for me.
