I always get confused how to include libraries which platformio doesn’t identify (Collected 0 compatible libraries)
Specifically, my folder structure is:
/
I can’t get PIO to see uGFX. How can I? Apologies because I know I’ve probed about this kind of thing before, but I never can quite get it.
Interesting points:
uGFX has no library.json nor would it be practical for me to give it one
uGFX is a submodule checkout via git and it’s important it stay symlinked as presented
“Not seeing” in this context means main.cpp is unable to #include <gfx.h>, even though gfx.h is located within ext/uGFX
platformio.ini file is quite simple:
[env:esp32]
platform=espressif32
framework=espidf
board=lolin32

Please provide tree -L3 src/PGESP-2/lib/uGFX
I get…
bash: tree: command not found, then tree: Invalid level, must be greater than 0.
Just kidding

Does it work without symlink?
No, it does not. Output is the same in either case:

On reflection, I’m thinking the library is probably complex enough for me to take on the library.json approach. Will play with that and report my findings
UPDATE: library.json approach works, though I was surprised to find out tree structure wants to be:
[root]
+ lib
+ uGFX
- library.json
+ src [=> symlink to actual uGFX lib]
Putting source files alongside library.json didn’t work. But, it’s better this way
malachib:
library.json
Could you share a content of library.json for other users who will come to this issue? Thanks!
You got it, once it’s working at a basic level
EDIT: I have hammered it into functioning, but it involved something a little bit nasty. I was unable to instruct platformio srcFilter to ignore header files in particular folders.
Within uGFX library, there are some font header files in:
[uGFX]/src/gdisp/fonts/mk_*.h
and has those same header file names duplicated in:
[uGFX]/mk_*.h
The latter ones are empty stubs. The build picks up these empty stubs, which then halts the build with errors. To get around this, I had to make a 3rd set of header files whose contents look kinda like:
#include "../lib/uGFX/src/src/gdisp/mcufont/mf_rlefont.h"
These 3rd set then sit in the user’s src folder (outside the lib)
Here’s the current state of library.json, given aforementioned caveats:
{
"name": "uGFX",
"keywords": "uGFX, graphics, windowing",
"description": "Portable graphics library",
"version": "2.7",
"repository":
{
"type": "git",
"url": "https://git.ugfx.io/uGFX/uGFX"
},
"build": {

So, I’m working on a helper lib to make it easier to use uGFX.
However, the amount of juggling with the aforementioned header files in my Jul 2 post is making it a bit cumbersome.
Could someone offer some guidance for how I might clean it up a bit? Here’s the repo
The folder of interest is test/basic/src and has both the mk_*.h file scenario as well as some FreeRTOS shim header files. As previously mentioned, these shim files are a “3rd set” of headers so that the compiler chooses the right headers
A little older and wiser, I’m able to craft the library.json properly. Love that build flags option Ivan
I am trying to integrate uGFX to PlatformIO as well, but I spent looots of time going nowhere
I am working on STM32 F7 discovery board [env:disco_f746ng] and using stm32cube framework, without RTOS or anything.
How did you make it work? I added uGFX library to the lib_extra_dirs/, included gfxconf.h in the (PIO project) include folder, copied gfx_mk.c to the src/ folder. And I have "#include<gfx.h>" in my main.c file.
It throws bunch of compilation errors - first one being, that it doesn’t find “gfx.c”.
I then tried to add “+” to the srcFilter @ library.json -> still the same.build_flags = -I/home/--pathToLib--/uGFX_library/src/ and it found gfx.c, but the rest of the errors didn’t go away.
Now it doesn’t find gdisp_lld_config.h (which is inside uGFX_root /drivers/gdisp/STM32LTDC/).gfxconf.h which is in my pio project’s include folder all the time! I noticed the warning in the LDF documentation - but changing the LDF mode to deep doesn’t help.
Basically as I understand, uGFX is made in such a way that you control what gets included/compiled by changing options in gfxconf.h. Since PIO doesn’t use conventional CPPP but has it’s own dependency finder - you would have to include/exclude files manually, which is a great headace from my experience.
What is the right way forward? I really don’t want to hack around library and include every file by hand using build_flags - there must be a nicer way…right?
useful response:
