[BUG]: CANSparkMax references unknown base type, RobotPy 2024 Beta 3

[escime]

Problem description

When running code in simulation using Robotpy 2024 Beta 3, any time CANSparkMax is imported, the code fails to run with error ImportError: generic_type: type "CANSparkMaxLowLevel" referenced unknown base type "frc::MotorController" reported. Limiting the code to just this import line still gives the same error. This import statement still has no issue in 2023 RobotPy.

[NOTE: I'm not really a Python developer or experienced with Github, so I apologize if I'm using this bug reporting process wrong.]

Reproducible example code

from rev import CANSparkMax

[virtuald]

Which version of python?

[escime]

Version is 3.11.0

[virtuald]

I rebuilt and pushed a robotpy-rev==2024.0.0b1.post1, try upgrading and see if that resolves the issue. We do run a test where we import the CANSparkMax in CI, so I can't think of a good reason why this would have broken.

[virtuald]

If that doesn't resolve the issue, then I would uninstall the older robotpy packages that you have and try again: robotpy-navx and robotpy-pathplannerlib both are 2023 versions.

[escime]

That resolved the issue. Thanks!

[virtuald]

Which one resolved the issue?

[escime]

Installing 2024.0.0b1.post1. After installation, software ran with no issue.
