M5Unified FreeRTOS (ESP-IDF) Application not Compiling

NevynUK

I am attempting to create a new ESP-IDF application that will use FreeRTOS application (so not Arduino). I am getting build errors and I was wondering if anyone has managed to get this working.

So I did the following:

idf.py create-project M5Test
idf.py set-target esp32p4
idf.py add-dependency "m5stack/m5unified^0.1.16"
idf.py build

I see the managed components (M5Unifed and M5GFX) caaded to the managed_components directory as expected.

However I see build errors in the M5GFX component.

ESP-IDF: 5.5
Target platform: Tab5

Thanks in advance,
Mark

I finally managed to get an application working with graphics and touch on the Tab5. My solution:

Removed any reference to managed components in the idf_component.yml files.
Clone the M5Unified and M5GFX repositories and put them in the components directory.
Added references to CMakeLists.txt for the added components.

Application now builds and I have tested the display with the BarGraph anf the TouchTest applications.

Hope this helps anyone experiencing the same issue.

Regards,
Mark
