Portenta and RPC: missing `asio.hpp` header; `framework-arduino-mbed` not latest

maxgerhardt · March 30, 2022, 2:01pm

Aha. The Arduino IDE compiles this sketch but all .cc files inside the RPC library are never compiled, which is where asio.hpp is included. I will try to reproduce this in PlatformIO…

maxgerhardt · March 30, 2022, 2:08pm

I have added a source filter, can you try the platformio.ini

[env]
platform = https://github.com/platformio/platform-ststm32.git
framework = arduino
; pull 3.0.0 core in PlatformIO-compatible packaging
; from a repo
platform_packages =
  framework-arduino-mbed@https://github.com/maxgerhardt/ArduinoCore-mbed

; for the Cortex-M7 part of the sketch
[env:portenta_h7_m7]
board = portenta_h7_m7

; for the Cortex-M4 part of the sketch
; build and upload both.
[env:portenta_h7_m4]
board = portenta_h7_m4

Works for me with src/main.ino being that example file you posted.

Hi Maximilian, Excellent thanks!
it compiles successfully (with some warnings) using your platformio.ini settings, fetching your package. It seems it compiles also several sources from e.g. FrameworkArduinoVariant, FrameworkArduino, lib44d…

So …if I may, would you mind explaining briefly what was the issue: what did you add in your version of the package that makes compiling code using RPC (and rpclib) doesn’t complain about asio.hpp missing? I still can’t locate any asio.hpp in my ~/.platformio or in my project’s directory .pio folder.

In any case, I’m back with platformIO!

Again, thanks a lot.

I just did what the Arduino IDE does, as I said it does not compile the .cc files inside the rpclib library, and only in these files asio.hpp is needed. So the Arduino IDE does also not need or have asio.hpp (I searched my entire Arduino packages too). The fix is in

, adding a library.json that ignores the .cc files, like the Arduino IDE does. In PlatformIO, .cc files are apparently seen as valid to be compiled C++ files, but not so in the Arduino IDE (?).

diplodocuslongus · March 31, 2022, 2:38pm

Interesting… On my side, before posting here, I had started to comment out the include<asio.hpp> in various places of rpclib in my local ~/.platformio/, suspecting asio.hpp simply wasn’t used but then other headers came about “not found”.

Seems like not many people use platformIO to develop on the portenta (or that few use platformIO + portenta + RPC).

See Update Arduino-mbed core to v3.0.1 · platformio/platform-ststm32@7679fc5 · GitHub

This code should work:

[env:upstream_develop]
platform = https://github.com/platformio/platform-ststm32.git
board = portenta_h7_m7
framework = arduino

ivankravets · March 31, 2022, 3:27pm

Fixed in the latest v3.0.1 version, the cc files were removed from the sources.

diplodocuslongus · April 1, 2022, 6:34am

Thanks Ivan, the code compiles all right.
So your modifications aren’t taken into account when one does a pio update, modifications are only applied via a local platformio.ini, right?
Because doing a pio update, the platformio/framework-arduino-mbed remains at 2.6.1:

$ pio update
[...]
Platform ststm32
[...]
Updating platformio/framework-arduino-mbed    2.6.1 @ ~2.6.0                     [Up-to-date]
[...]

We have not released support for v3.0.1. You have to use the development branch of the STM32 dev platform. See my comment Portenta and RPC: missing `asio.hpp` header; `framework-arduino-mbed` not latest - #10 by ivankravets

maxgerhardt · April 1, 2022, 9:42am

You’d have to do pio platform update https://github.com/platformio/platform-ststm32.git

Edit: Since the stable platform was released you can again do pio platform update ststm32 and then just use platform = ststm32 in your platformio.ini.

ivankravets · April 1, 2022, 11:46am

There is a stable release with a new Arduino core. Please just re-run pio platform update.

benni77 · June 29, 2022, 2:22pm

Hey guys, I don’t get it. Here on my setup asio.hpp is still missing. I’ve updated everything: pio Core 6.0.2.
I tried VSCode and Clion.
Update: Arduino IDE works fine…

Any ideas?

Thank you!!

ArduinoCore-mbed/libraries/rpclib at master · arduino/ArduinoCore-mbed · GitHub doesn’t have a library.json at all which could fix this like I’ve done in Ignore noncompilable files · maxgerhardt/ArduinoCore-mbed@5847408 · GitHub.

Can you locally

wget -O ~/.platformio/packages/framework-arduino-mbed/libraries/rpclib/library.json https://raw.githubusercontent.com/maxgerhardt/ArduinoCore-mbed/5847408bd987985ab792988685f0a0cd8dd1fd89/libraries/rpclib/library.json

to put the file in there?

benni77 · June 29, 2022, 3:15pm

Okay now I understand the point. After putting your library.json into the rpclib directory it works super fine.

Thank you!

maxgerhardt · June 29, 2022, 3:24pm

Then I think that the updated package had my fix in there one time, but it didn’t make it in the next package version because it wasn’t there at the source… I will try and PR this library.json back to ArduinoCore-mbed.

sgawad · January 25, 2023, 12:08pm

Hello I just installed a fresh VScode + platform IO and tried it and got the exact same error…

I also tried changing my platformio.ini:
platform = GitHub - platformio/platform-ststm32: ST STM32: development platform for PlatformIO
board = portenta_h7_m7
framework = arduino

thank you for you help

maxgerhardt · January 25, 2023, 12:48pm

Do you see such a file in your local C:\Users\<user>\.platformio\packages\framework-arduino-mbed\[....] folder?

sgawad · January 25, 2023, 12:53pm

Nope… do you mean here:

maxgerhardt · January 25, 2023, 12:54pm

Then likely PlatformIO staff didn’t put this fix into newly released framework versions. Can you manually add back the library.json from the link above in that folder and retry clean + compilation?

sgawad · January 25, 2023, 1:00pm

I will. thank you!! … Did you change the library.properties as well? I have a nicla that I might connect in the future.
