boards from MSP430 family and blynk lib - compilation error on template

[reaper7]

when I try to compile examples from blynk library then I get error:

...\libraries\blynk-library/utility/BlynkUtility.h:26:20: error: expected ')' before numeric constant
...\libraries\blynk-library/utility/BlynkUtility.h:26:20: error: expected '>' before numeric constant
...\libraries\blynk-library/utility/BlynkUtility.h:26:20: error: expected unqualified-id before ')' token

26 line from BlynkUtility looks:

26  template <unsigned N, typename T>
27  void BlynkAverageSample (T& avg, const T& input) {
28      avg -= avg/N;
29      const T add = input/N;
30      // Fix for shorter delays
31      avg += (add > 0) ? add : -1;
32  }

the same code compiled OK on other Energia platforms CC3200/Stallaris/Tiva and Arduino/ESP8266

...this is compilator error? or maybe incorrect wrote template on blynk library ?

Try and rename the variables N and T to NN and TT.

The former names may conflict with macros.

Which MSP430 board are you compiling against?

LOL - it works... :D tnx!

BTW still get one more error:

User_Defined_Connection.cpp: In function 'size_t BlynkStreamRead(void*, size_t)':
User_Defined_Connection.cpp:42:42: error: invalid conversion from 'byte* {aka unsigned char*}' to 'char*' [-fpermissive]
C:\PROGRAMY\energia\hardware\msp430\cores\msp430/Stream.h:76:10: error:   initializing argument 1 of 'size_t Stream::readBytes(char*, size_t)' [-fpermissive]

• Have you renamed T or N?
• Which board are you using?
• Use transtype function to convert byte* to char*.

[reaper7]

I rename T & N and error is gone:

template <unsigned NN, typename TT>
void BlynkAverageSample (TT& avg, const TT& input) {
    avg -= avg/NN;
    const TT add = input/NN;
    // Fix for shorter delays
    avg += (add > 0) ? add : -1;
}

I'm try on msp430f5529 and msp430g2955

EDIT: changing T is not neccesary, need only N to NN

[rei-vilo]

Please report the issue and suggest the solution to Blynk! Thank you.

[reaper7]

of course I report

what You mean: "Use transtype function to convert byte* to char*."

[rei-vilo]

With the following declarations

• if function is declared as void function(char * value)
• but myValue as byte* myValue;, simply use
• function((char *)myValue);.

sorry but second problem is gone :) maybe energia restart was needed.

finally: rename N to NN solves problem tnx rei-vilo
