Supress compiler output Looking for (whatever).h dependency? Check our library registry!

Hi all

How do I suppress the nuisance “helper” text in the compiler output.


  • Looking for MyESP8266Gpio.h dependency? Check our library registry!
  • CLI > platformio lib search “header:MyESP8266Gpio.h”
  • Web >

It would be real nice if PlatformIO, and VSCode didn’t try so hard to “help” me. I could get a lot more done.

Thanks, Mark.

Usually this message means there is an error (missing a required header file / library), not just a warning. Supressing the error message won’t help here, because the project can’t be build without the missing file / library.

See Library Dependency Finder (LDF) — PlatformIO latest documentation :

The Library Dependency Finder is a core part of PlatformIO Build System that operates with the C/C++ source files and looks for #include ... directives to know what header directories to include for the compiler.
