Platform not supported Error when using ESPAsyncWebServer for ESP32

Development Platforms

Hi,
I am using ESP32 Dev Module.
When I am adding ESPAsyncWebServer.h I get this error while building:

This is my platformio file:
[env:esp32dev]

platform = espressif32

framework = arduino, espidf

board = esp32dev

build_flags = -DCONFIG_WIFI_SSID=\"ESP_AP\" -DCONFIG_WIFI_PASSWORD=\"MYPASS\"

monitor_speed = 115200

platform_packages =

; use a special branch

framework-arduinoespressif32 @ https://github.com/espressif/arduino-esp32.git#idf-release/v4.0

# using the latest stable version

lib_deps =

ESP Async WebServer

AsyncTCP

SHA-1 Hash

When I remove espidf as a framework in the platform.ini file it builds successfully for some reason.

Not sure why it says unsupported platform.

In a nutshell, CMakeLists.txt for Arduino framework doesn’t contain required CPPDEFINES. Try adding -D ESP32 to your platfromio.ini:

platform = espressif32
framework = arduino, espidf
board = esp32dev
build_flags = 
    -D ESP32
