Compile Error with Arduino

[martinglass]

Trying to use this repo with an Arduino (Mega).

However, Arduino IDE fails to compile successfully, because it says it cannot find these libraries:

The "array" library seems to be a major stumbling block

Can you advise?

Running the sbus_example, in Arduino IDE with Arduino Mega 2560 gives this error:

Please note from the installation instructions that AVR microcontrollers are not supported, mostly due to the use of std::array.

[martinglass]

Doh, Thanks. I see that now.

Would it be possible to use arrays in a way that works for AVR devices as well as ARM?

It would be useful to AVR users, if this code could run on such devices.

There's some older versions older versions of this library that support AVR; check the checklog. Also, the Embedded Template Library can provide std::array support for AVR.
