esp8266 compiling error

[devon_0]

I am compiling my code on arduino ide for my esp8266.
when compiling i cam across this error:

Code: Select all

I'll assume your question is, "what does this warning mean?" It is explicitly saying... the library you're using is not compatible with your ESP8266. If you think the library developer is being too conservative, you can brute force it, so the compiler will try to compile it.
