Device OS 2.0.0-rc.4 - "fatal error: stm32f2xx.h: No such file or directory" but compiles fine in 1.5.4 RC2

[jgskarda]

Not sure if I’m misunderstanding something with working with libraries and different major versions or some catch with LTS firmware releases. I’ve been using the RF9X-RK radio library successfully in 1.5.1 RC1 for the last 6+ months and and briefly tested it in 1.5.4 RC2 without issue. I figured I’d give the 2.0.0 RC4 a go at it. Without making any other changes besides downloading the toolchain and selecting deviceOS@2.0.0-rc.4 the project no longer compiles due to a missing library within the RF9x-RK library.

I receive this error:
“/lib/RF9X-RK/src/RadioHead.h:1276:11: fatal error: stm32f2xx.h: No such file or directory
1276 | #include <stm32f2xx.h>”

@rickkas7 - Is there something I need to do to update the library to work properly with Device OS 2.0.0 RC4? Or am I just misunderstanding something?

This is the specific line within the RadioHead.h library that is throwing the error:

My IDE is VS Code, I confirmed the target device is selected to be the Boron. I recieve the same error in deviceOS@2.0.0-rc.1 as well.

Any thoughts on how to resolve this?

Your thread tag states you are targeting a Boron but that isn’t based on an STM32F controller but an nRF52840, hence I’d suspect you have not targeted the correct platform.

You can check whether the RH_PLATFORM macro is defined wrong by compiling a simple test project which only prints out their current values.

I released a new version with a change to fix that issue.

0.0.5 (2020-11-15)

• Fixed compile error on Gen3 devices with 2.0.0-rc due to HAL_PLATFORM_MESH no longer being defined.

As always @rickkas7 to the rescue! I installed the new library 0.0.5 via “particle: install library” from VS Code and it then my full project compiled and downloaded successfully! Thanks! that was crazy quick too! As always, very much appreciated. Issue resolved.
