Compile errors in Arduino IDE

#1

Hello, I am trying to compile my code created in mBlock v3.4.12 in my Arduino IDE v1.8.19. where I imported the mBlock libraries v3.27. I get a list of compile errors for the header files in the library, I just show the first set of errors below.

Any idea where my problem is?

What header files are you including?

#3

Hi @MurrayElliot, thanks for looking into this.

I just use what mBlock puts there, i.e.:

#include <Arduino.h>
#include <Wire.h>
#include <SoftwareSerial.h>

#include <MeAuriga.h>

Did I miss an important one?

#4

Hmm. Don’t think so. I’ve never come across this problem, but then I’m a Mac user. I’ll give it a go on my PC later and see if I hit the same issues.

#5

I just found this post that reported a similar error: Arduino Auriga Error

Unfortunately, I do not understand the instructions provided there: They talk about “name the file as Makeblock and copy it to Arduino\libraries” but I do not know what “the file” should be. Any idea?

Hi @Stefan, I’ve just installed the arduino IDE and the libraries and not encountered that error.

I see from previous posts of yours that you are using the Ranger and I can replicate your problem if I select “Arduino Uno” as the board in the IDE. You must make sure you selected the me_auriga compatible board which is the Arduino Mega 2560
(in the IDE, go to Tools -> Board menu and select “Arduino Mega or Mega 2560”).

Does that help?

You might get some benefit from reading a guide I wrote for the Ranger, here:

Hi @MurrayElliot, this is great, thank you! :rocket: This was the last piece missing: set the board correctly to “Arduino Mega or Mega 2560”. And thank you also for pointing me to your book. A lot of very useful information, still need to read through most parts…

Have a great day! Warm regards, Stefan
