TFT_eSPI on Photon with VS Particle IO Workbench

[mjbaloh]

Hello,

By the title you can see the direction of the question... I am trying to use the TFT_eSPI library for an Photon development board application being developed on VS with the Particle IO workbench extension. I have a working application with functional TFT based on the Adafruit_mfGFX libraries. So, I don't have any wiring issues or basic setup issues. My intent was to spruce up the display with some nice graphics and the TFT_eSPI library seemed like it was worth checking out.

I did a search on the discussions for this repo and found nothing on the topic. My guess is that I am out of luck.

Anyhow, hoping for a solution, here are my circumstances:

I followed Bodmers advice and created a platformio.ini file which corresponds to my device

The main file is a simple test one as shown here:

As you see, I had include issues and needed to make some modifications from #include<> to #include" "

The compilation goes quite far, but hits the following error

A spent a bit of time on this and was not able to resolve the issue. Does anyone have advice?

Thanks,

Michael.
