Compiling issues

[c0debreaker]

I'm getting the errors below. If I remove #include <ESPAsyncWebServer.h> and other related code, the compile becomes successful. What did I do someting wrong?

Hi lbernstone,

I see there are 3 files that needs to be updated. I can update it manually. However, I like to learn how to update it from your given code. What tool should I use for that? It looks similar to some diffs I've seen very long time ago using patch command. Thanks a lot!

[lbernstone]

That was a git diff. It was updated with my own 2 hands :) I just looked at what was missing, grep'd for those functions in the arduino-esp32/tools/esp32-arduino-libs/esp32/include folder, and included those files in the correct locations. To make a PR, I need to figure out a way to only include those headers if the version is >3.0.0.

[c0debreaker]

Oh got it. I knew I will have issues when Arduino popped up something on the lower right corner. Do you want to update to 3.0.0? I said yes. Few hours later, I encountered the issues above.

Alrighty, I'll make changes to my local. Thank you.

I add the lines above with the + on them I got this: /Users/jcdonelson/Documents/Arduino/libraries/ESPAsyncWebServer/src/AsyncWebSocket.cpp: In member function 'void AsyncWebSocketClient::_queueMessage(AsyncWebSocketMessage*)': /Users/jcdonelson/Documents/Arduino/libraries/ESPAsyncWebServer/src/AsyncWebSocket.cpp:551:7: error: 'ets_printf' was not declared in this scope; did you mean 'vswprintf'? 551 | ets_printf("ERROR: Too many messages queued\n"); | ^~~~~~ | vswprintf If I comment out line 551 then it all compiles.

I found this:

#ifdef ESP_ARDUINO_VERSION_MAJOR
            #if ESP_ARDUINO_VERSION >= ESP_ARDUINO_VERSION_VAL(3, 0, 0)
                                                  // Code for version 3.x

                   #else
                                                 // Code for version 2.x
                   #ifdef ESP32

                   #else

                    #endif
                 #endif
                #endif

on https://github.com/h2zero/NimBLE-Arduino/issues/676#issuecomment-2160799917, from a comment made by ednieuw. ednieuw says they got this piece of code from the Espressif migration 2.x -> 3.x document. Supposedly, this piece of code makes a library compatible for both ESP32 versions. I hope this helps.

Update: I found a file with a piece a code explaining the manipulation of the ESP32 versions better in the Espressif's official repository for Arduino core for the ESP32. A little bit more information can be found in Espressif's Compatibility Guide for ESP32 Arduino Core page

If I comment out line 551 then it all compiles.

Just an observation, but in AsyncWebSocket.cpp the ets_printf() function is used 7 times, but 6 of these are commented out. The one that triggers the compile error is the only one that is not commented out. Perhaps that one got missed when the debug lines were added and commented out six years ago.

I can confirm that after making the changes above and commenting out this line, it compiles and seems to work fine on an ESP32 dev board.
