It is possible to bypass the blockage put in place by the Arduino IDE so that a setup file can be included
|
|
by a sketch.
|
|
|
|
The procedure is as follows:
|
|
|
|
1. Find the folder containing the boards.txt file for the processor board package you are using. To do this
|
|
click the IDE menu "File->Preferences". At the bottom of that window click the link to the preferences.txt
|
|
file. This will open a folder. Navigate to find the folder containing the "boards.txt" file for the
|
|
processor you are using. Example paths for RP2040 and ESP32 are:
|
|
|
|
C:\Users\xxxxx\AppData\Local\Arduino15\packages\rp2040\hardware\rp2040\2.5.2
|
|
C:\Users\xxxxx\AppData\Local\Arduino15\packages\esp32\hardware\esp32\2.0.4
|
|
|
|
2. Copy the platform.local.txt file to that folder. A copy of the "platform.local.txt" is in this sketch
|
|
folder, press Ctrl+K to open the folder.
|
|
|
|
3. Close the Arduino IDE and open it again so the added file is recognised.
|
|
|
|
4. This step is already done in this sketch, but to adapt you own sketches, open the sketch and add a
|
|
new tab, "tft_setup.h" in the main sketch, put all the tft library setup information in that header.
|
|
The tab header name must be tft_setup.h
|
|
|
|
IMPORTANT: You will need to remember to add the platform.local.txt file again if you upgrade the IDE or
|
|
the board package version. Note that the file must be added to each processor board package you are using.
