TFT_eSPI compilation issue using vscode with Windows

[Shikamru]

Hello Bodmer,
I am using pico w board with c/c++ sdk for my projects, I wanted to import the arduino libraries into my workspace so i found this repo pico-arduino-compat https://github.com/kholia/pico-arduino-compat , which helped me to do that. however which including the tft liraries am facing a lot of errors like below, am i missing anything here, kindly guide me .

these are few.

note -> I am using vs code on windows.

The library is intended for the Arduino IDE environment so I am not able to help with other build setups.

I'm using vscode and platformio and compiles without any errors.
Try to update libraries, platforms and try again.
