Add VL53L0X Api to ESP-IDF project

[Hack-Mike]

Hi,

unfortunately I'm stuck again with CMake and external sources.
I'm not able to find the right way to add ST VL53L0X Api to my project to use it.

If some one help me I'll appreciate.

Sorry, I left my crystal ball home today, so I'm unable to diagnose your problem from just 'I'm stuck again'. Can you post where you are stuck, what the output of the compile process is, what you have tried, perhaps even a link to your code? That will help immensely in us being able to tell you what to do.

I want to add the VL53L0X Api to my project

, I created a CMake.txt like this:

Code: Select all

set(COMPONENT_SRCS 
  "core/src/vl53l0x_api.c"
  "core/src/vl53l0x_api_calibration.c"
  "core/src/vl53l0x_api_core.c"
  "core/src/vl53l0x_api_ranging.c"
  "core/src/vl53l0x_api_strings.c"
  "platform/src/vl53l0x_platform.c"
  "platform/src/vl53l0x_platform_log.c"
)

set(COMPONENT_ADD_INCLUDEDIRS "." "core/inc" "platform/inc")

register_component()

then in main/CMake.txt I call

Code: Select all

add_subdirectory(...mylib/vl53l0x_Api VL53L0X)

but when I reload CMake project I receive this error:

"add_library cannot create target "__idf_main" because another target with
the same name already exists. The existing target is a static library
created in source directory"

I think you need to write the platform specific parts under vl53l0x_platform.h like the documentation says to use the api for esp32.
You already did that?!
