Compiler errors ... due to misplaced library files
Posted: Thu Aug 22, 2013 10:13 pmHi everyone,
This has to be the most common support question we have received over the years ...
The answer is easy ... You don't have the proper file directory layout/structure
the Arduino compiler is expecting. Depending on the operating system you're
using, the files MUST be located in a specific location, particularly the library files.
The following Arduino articles further discuss this topic. We strongly encourage
you to go and read those if you are experiencing any compiler issues following a
straight unzip of our distribution package. Our distribution package should
compile out-of-the-box without any compiler warnings or errors.
