DallasTemperature Library (Compiling Issue)

Troubleshooting
#1

This worked until I changed from 0.4.8 to 0.5.3 now I get:

/src/DallasTemperature.cpp:97:6: error: prototype for 'void DallasTemperature::readScratchPad(const uint8_t*, uint8_t*)' does not match any in class 'DallasTemperature'

Is there a special reason you are not using a more recent system version like 0.6.1 or 0.6.2-rc.1?

What version of the library are you using?
Can you post a link to the library, since it’s not the one hosted by Particle
https://build.particle.io/libs/spark-dallas-temperature/0.0.5

The error message suggests the prototypes declared in the .h file don’t match the implementation in the .cpp file.

#3

I have it back working now. Oddly the problem was associated with Serial4.h I’ll have to work on that, when I remed it out the compile is OK. I’ll update that Electron now. I have stayed back at 0.4.8 because that is where the program was working, until I made a change that forced me to update. Any idea on what to do about Serial4.h that doesn’t work now?

#4

I doubt the problem really has any immediate connection with Serial4.h.
The error messages do point to the particular issue I mentioned and that needs to be addressed.

#5

I agree it’s not an immediate connection with Serial4.h however Serial4.h has been a problem all along and the reason I stayed on 0.4.8
Has Serial4.h been updated, does anyone have it working on 0.5.3 or above?

#6

Could you describe the issues you saw with Serial4?
Why not just test the most recent version for your particular needs?

#7

Went looking for a different version of Serial4.h this one works, thanks.
