Redefinitions causing code to fail compilation on Sparkfun Artemis Boards (Apollo 3)

[ArminJo]

Thanks 👍

Hi, I am not able to reporduce the error I only get some strange BFD errors at the end of linking.

@ArminJo BFD Error on the Sparkfun Artemis? I don't even know what that is. I have a little bit of experience with wading through the Artemis docs, can you upload your error output?

[ArminJo]

Here they are: https://github.com/ukw100/IRMP/runs/1615150246?check_suite_focus=true#step:3:622
search for BFD and you will find a lot. I get the same error on W10 with the Arduino IDE, so support is highly appreciated 👍

[ArminJo]

The BFD error is fixed! 😀

@ArminJo I don't know about the BFD error, but I can tell you this, because i just fixed this myself earlier today. You are using a really old version of the Artemis Board Package (You are using 1.2.1, newest is 2.0.3). They changed the board manager URL to https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sparkfun/Arduino_Apollo3/master/package_sparkfun_apollo3_index.json.

I bet that updating that will also cause you to have the same error that I opened this bug report for. Like I said, I just realized and fixed the URL myself earlier today.

Thanks for the new board manager URL!
I changed the sources now, so that no errors should happen any more.
Can you please do me the favor and check if the timer works like before? I.e. IR receiving is working and the feedback led is flickering.

@ArminJo I was working on that earlier and plugged my IR receiver in backwards and destroyed it, so I cannot test it right now.
I likely will not be able to get another IR receiver until January 6, but I will look around and see if I have one laying around that I previously did not find.
I am currently working on writing a script to run a test of the transmission mode, so I hope to have done tonight though.

@ArminJo I found another IR receiver and tested it. It now compiles fine and runs fine. on the Artemis ATP

[marsfan]

@ArminJo I just was looking around. You might actually want to test against both V1.2.1 cores and V2.x cores for the Artemis. Some of the capabilities from the V1 core are still not available in the V2 core, so some people still use the V1 core.

[ArminJo]

Thanks, for the advice 👍
