Can't build example using esp-idf v4.1

kaizoku-oh commented 3 years ago

Prerequisites

[x] I have written a descriptive issue title
[x] I have verified that I am using the latest version of esp32-wifi-manager
[x] I have searched open and closed issues to ensure it has not already been reported

Description

I'm facing the same issue similar #103 when working with ESP-IDF 4.1 on platformio. error: unknown type name 'esp_event_handler_instance_t'; did you mean 'esp_event_handler_t'? Is there anyway to get around this build error while still using the 4.1 version?

Steps to Reproduce

install platformio extention on vscode
create a new project for esp32 using the esp-idf framework
create a components folder under the root of the project and copy the wifi-manager into it (tried master and other tags)
build

System Configuration

Debian 10 x64
vscode
platformio

Hello,

This is normal, this code only compile with 4.2 and up as per the requirements:

Are you considering to support a stable release in the future? because v4.2 is only pre-release beta now contrary to v4.1 which is a stable release and will be supported until February 2023 according to espressif https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf/releases/tag/v4.1

Definitely not. 4.2 should hit RC stage fairly soon and the master tree is already in 4.3. There’s no point holding back the codebase at this stage.
