How to migrate from tcpip_adapter_* to esp_netif_`*
How to migrate from tcpip_adapter_* to esp_netif_`*
Today I updated to the last version of esp-idf and wanted to build my project. There was a message "tcpip_adapter_init () is deprecated please use esp_netif_init ()". Ok, I did it and my project was built, but there was a crash. So I edited around until my project ran again. I would like to share the necessary steps with you:
replace in your sources "tcpip_adapter_init();" with
"esp_netif_init();
sta_netif = esp_netif_create_default_wifi_sta();
assert( sta_netif );
"
replace "WIFI_IF_STA" with "ESP_IF_WIFI_STA" and "WIFI_IF_AP" with "ESP_IF_WIFI_AP"
replace "TCPIP_ADAPTER_IF_STA" with "sta_netif" and "TCPIP_ADAPTER_IF_AP" with "ap_netif"
replace "tcpip_adapter_" to "esp_netif_"
replace "TCPIP_ADAPTER_" with "ESP_NETIF_"
set in your main wifi source file
/* esp netif object representing the WIFI station */
esp_netif_t *sta_netif = NULL;
esp_netif_t *ap_netif = NULL;
in other files using these variables add
extern esp_netif_t *sta_netif;
extern esp_netif_t *ap_netif;
Maybe it will help you.

Re: How to migrate from tcpip_adapter_* to esp_netif_`*
So looking at using a TCP client socket and following the examples it uses esp_netif.h but the IDE cant find it so esp_netif_init(); also fails
using the version 4 release - so has anyone come across this ?
TIA Danny

Re: How to migrate from tcpip_adapter_* to esp_netif_`*
Which examples are you looking at? If you are using release 4.0 then this doesn't have esp_netif (it will be a part of 4.1), so the examples for this version should still use the tcpip_adapter.

I just changed to v4.1 and my project is a complete mess now I am looking in the compilation errors and replacing 1 by 1 but it's a pain. It's hard to search in the documentation because I don't know what to search for.
It might be good if you write some article about it because this is a big change. Also, the v4 examples are not comprehensive enough. The getting_started one has only two events..
Im stuck for hours on this error:
I declared it as:
then initialized it:

Re: How to migrate from tcpip_adapter_* to esp_netif_`*
Well, i found the problem. I've used the esp_netif_t type in a wrong way. Now i have another problem, i cant link anything from esp_netif. The linker complains against anything netif related: This component is used in my custom component which has CMakeLists.txt file where i tested with PRIV_REQUIRES and REQUIRES:

Re: How to migrate from tcpip_adapter_* to esp_netif_`*
Any help please? I am stuck at this all day. The esp_netif component seems to be compiled but can't be linked. I tried all combinations to include headers and REQUIRE components.
Re: How to migrate from tcpip_adapter_* to esp_netif_`*
Well, i dont know whats been changed in the master in the last sever hours but it fixed it.
Additionally i had to put the include in extern "C":
Please fix it in the repo

Re: How to migrate from tcpip_adapter_* to esp_netif_`*
Just started to look at the espidf framework.
I am on windows VSCode.
Platformio.ini
I was using their example at https://docs.platformio.org/en/latest/t ... lysis.html
I will include my current code, but the bottom line when I used tcpip_adapter_init() it works and if I use esp_netif_init it can not get an IP. The log shows a connect but my device after timeout says it can not obtain IP.
This may not be a bug but my limited understanding of the framework and wifi library.
I saw the depreciation message, so as part of my learning I was going to fix it. I assumed it was just a matter of switching names for functions. If I understand that these two functions only handle the hardware layer, I would think the upper layers (DHCP) would have been the same, correct?
Here is a log of sucssufull (tcpip_adapter_init()) connect and DHCP assigned IP.
Hre is a log of unsucssufull (esp_netif_init()) connect and DHCP assigned IP.
The only difference is unremarked the tcpip_adaper vs esp_netif
