Needed to support ESP-NOW on ESP-8266 chips, which seem to only work if connecting into softAP MAC Address once HomeSpan is connected to WiFi network (prior to connection ESP-8266 will properly connect to normal STA address as well as softAP address).
If invert=true, PWM output will be phase-inverted. This is useful when creating a pair of PWM pins that need to be out of phase by 180 degrees (e.g driving a piezo-electric buzzer via two PWM pins).
Provides for additional control over Status LED when a generic device has been used. If the color of the device is changed, the change will only take effect when the LED is next turned on. If the LED is blinking, the color changes upon the next blink. But if the LED is ON, there is no next blink and color will not change.
This method check the status of the LED, and if it is ON, is calls the on() function again, which will result in an update of the color. The method does nothing if the LED is OFF or BLINKING.
Similar to CUSTOM_CHAR_STRING() macro, but does not include a parameter to set the default value (since the user can type an invalid string). Instead, user setData after creating the Characteristic as needed.
Noticed that the Arduino IDE 2.0 interface was not displaying Other Examples.
This is because Other Examples was not under the "examples" folder. Not sure why this was the case - I should have originally put it there (?) Regardless, once moved into the examples folder, Other Examples now properly shows up in both Arduino IDE version 1 and version 2.
Applicable only for remote devices (i.e. not a Hub device). Last channel stored is used as initial channel upon reboot, provided that this channel is allowed by the channel mask (if not, the first allowed channel is selected instead).
* Changed ~SpanService to virtual function to ensure any user-defined destructor is also called
* Found/corrected bug in error message related to defining a Characteristic without any Service
* Added warning/error ID numbers to warning/error messages
* Other misc changes to clean up compiler warnings
