Add maintainer field to library.properties #7

Closed per1234 closed 6 years ago

per1234 commented 6 years ago

When the maintainer field is missing from library.properties, the Arduino IDE does not recognize the library:

Sketch > Include Library > Add .ZIP Library fails silently.
Compilation of any code that includes the library fails.
After manual installation, "Invalid library" warnings are shown every time the libraries are scanned.
Library Manager index inclusion request is blocked.
