If we include sdk espconn.h in our code. It gets conflicting type of dns_found_callback during compilation. Compilation error and sketch are provided to reproduce problem.

Request you to please suggest some workaround to get over this issue.

MCVE Sketch


extern "C"{
    // Platform Includes
    #include <espconn.h>
}

#include <ESP8266WiFi.h>

// the setup function runs once when you press reset or power the board
void setup() {
  Serial.begin(115200);
  WiFi.begin((char*)"testssid", (char*)"testpassword");
}
void loop() {

}
