Is anyone getting the same error as reported quite a while back in this Issue:
platforms/avr/led_sysdefs_avr.h: No such file or directory · Issue #2 · focalintent/FastLED-Sparkcore · GitHub ?

I keep getting this same directory error: “platforms/avr/led_sysdefs_avr.h: No such file or directory”

I’ve done the steps noted in that Issue including this code at the start:
#include “FastLED.h”
FASTLED_USING_NAMESPACE;
#if FASTLED_VERSION < 3001000
#error “Requires FastLED 3.1 or later; check github for latest code.”
#endif

It seems like I must be missing some simple, as others aren’t necessarily having this issue any longer.

Any ideas?

I should mention I’m working locally and compiling in the cloud using Particle DEV.

You can in fact compile for Photon/Spark, but you need to do some work. In your case, I think it’s just not matching the defines to get to the ARM definitions you are looking for. I have a patch for the FastLED latest which may help you overcome this, but I don’t have it handy. I’ll try to make it available later if you want to try it.

That would be awesome, thanks!

Sorry, just got around to this. You can find my FastLED patch here. I haven’t updated it recently (last few weeks), so let me know if it doesn’t apply clean.

Thanks much Peter. Do you have any advice on how to implement this? This is a new process to me.

I suppose these are the steps: 7 Patch Command Examples to Apply Diff Patch Files in Linux ?

Run the patch file on each of the files listed at the top of the patch, correct?

I tried that and am getting this error:
File to patch: led_sysdefs.h
patching file led_sysdefs.h
Hunk #1 succeeded at 16 with fuzz 2 (offset -3 lines).
Hunk #2 succeeded at 28 (offset -3 lines).
missing header for unified diff at line 40 of patch

Perhaps you used the wrong -p or --strip option?

Any advice? Thanks again.

The patch applies clean against the latest from github, so my guess is that you are using a very old version of FastLED. Can you update to use the latest?

Hmm I just did a fresh download the other day, but I will try again. Thanks.
