ESP32 Forum

I have been using the ESP-IDF with the Eclipse plugin for quite a while now and it works great for me. I recently bought an ESP32-CAM to play with the ESP_WHO package and was able to get it downloaded and built and examples running. However, when I created a new project Eclipse did not provide the ESP_WHO examples in the list of available templates. So as a hack I copied the examples to the ESP-IDF Examples folder and copied the ESP_WHO components to the ESP-IDF Components folder and now when I create a new project from a Template in Eclipse I can select the ESP_WHO examples and they compile and work. So yeah, I made it work!

However, this seems like a serious hack as I have commingled the components from the 2 libraries. Is there a way to point eclipse to the ESP_WHO Component and Example folder instead of combining the 2 libraries?

Did you ever get an answer? Do you know where the setting that contains the path to the standard IDF examples kept in eclipse?

Sorry it took so long to reply. I need to check how it notifies me when there is a reply to one of my posts.

Anyway, my response won't be much help anyway, I did not ever find this out. I just installed them all in the same IDF folder and it seemed to work.
