ESP32 and ESP32-S2 IDF

[markjuggles]

Hello Everyone,

I successfully built some ESP32 examples for the ESP32-Pico.

When trying to build examples for the ESP32-S2-Saola, there are errors when setting the new target. Deleting the build directory doesn't help.

Code: Select all

idf.py set-target  esp32s2beta
Adding "set-target"'s dependency "fullclean" to list of commands with default set of options.
Executing action: fullclean
Directory 'c:\users\mark\esp\projects\esp-aws-iot\saola\subscribe_publish\build' doesn't seem to be a CMake build directory. Refusing to automatically delete files in this directory. Delete the directory manually to 'clean' it.

Can the IDF support both the ESP32 and the ESP32-S2 or can only one be used?

Thank you,

Mark

Hi!

Please don't use esp32s2beta. This has been a temporary target when we brought out the ESP32-S2 last year.
Please use esp32s2 as target instead.
Which IDF version are you on? If the esp32s2 target isn't supported in your version of IDF, please update to a newer version (like v4.2, e.g.) where we fully support the S2.

This is all unless you really have an S2-beta version of the chip. Then I'm not so sure whether the newest version is compatible.

I ended up with the esp32s2beta because I used the automated installation. That was my third or fourth attempt at installing the tools and it was finally successful. For the ESP32 anyway.

So now I tried another couple of installations with the IDF from github. Of course it doesn't work.

Can you tell me instructions to follow and which github branch to use to get a working environment for the S2?

Or is there a virtual machine set up with the build environment?

Thanks
