Compiling issues with esp-hosted-fg

[lawrencerb]

Tools used: VSCode: ESP-IDF extension Compiling the code for either esp32-c3 or esp32-c6 results in:

It appears this specific section of the code is complaining that the condition is always true. There is an easy fix identifying if the pointer has ended the information with \0 but from source it does not compile.

Verified the same issue for either Windows or Linux using ninja ans VSCode

Found a fix using the idf.py:

1. Clean your build directory with idf.py fullclean.
2. Set the target to ESP32-C6 with idf.py --preview set-target esp32c6.
3. Run idf.py menuconfig and make sure you select the right settings for your chip.
4. Navigate to 'Compiler options' and choose 'Disable new warnings introduced in GCC 12'.
5. Rebuild your project with idf.py build.
6. Run: .espressif/python_env/idf5.1_py3.10_env/bin/python ../../../../../esp/esp-idf/components/esptool_py/esptool/esptool.py -p /dev/ttyUSB0 -b 460800 --before default_reset --after hard_reset --chip esp32c6 write_flash --flash_mode dio --flash_size 4MB --flash_freq 80m 0x0 build/bootloader/bootloader.bin 0x8000 build/partition_table/partition-table.bin 0xd000 build/ota_data_initial.bin 0x10000 build/network_adapter.bin

Noted and thank you for pointing out the issue you had faced..

These changes are taken into consideration for next release.

For now you can just change:

if(<Condition>)

To

if(strlen((char*)<Condition>))

We suggest not to suppress any kind of compiler warning you face.
