Fix ArduinoISP sketch for Uno WiFi Rev2 #2
base: main
Are you sure you want to change the base?

I think it must be. I tried it both with and without the ATmega328 emulation enabled for both boards and I got the same result (Uno WiFi Rev2 always works, Nano Every always fails). When I use a SAMD board, either with the release version of the platform, or a beta version that has ArduinoCore-API integration, it works. |
The CI didn't run on the PR because the repo is private, but you can see the jobs here: |
When using bitbanged SPI, which the sketch did when compiled for any architecture other than AVR, a SPISettings class was declared by the sketch. At the time the sketch was written, it was reasonable to expect this would not cause a name collision, since SPI.h is not `#include`d when doing bit banged SPI. However, since then a SPISettings class has been declared in ArduinoCore-API's HardwareSPI.h, causing the ArduinoISP sketch to not compile for any board whose core uses ArduinoCoreAPI (currently Arduino Mega AVR Boards, "Arduino nRF528x Boards (Mbed OS)", and "Arduino Mbed OS Boards (nRF52840 / STM32H747)"): ``` /github/workspace/examples/11.ArduinoISP/ArduinoISP/ArduinoISP.ino:191:27: error: reference to 'SPISettings' is ambiguous void beginTransaction(SPISettings settings) { ^~~~~~~~~~~ /github/workspace/examples/11.ArduinoISP/ArduinoISP/ArduinoISP.ino:167:7: note: candidates are: class SPISettings class SPISettings { ^~~~~~~~~~~ In file included from /github/home/.arduino15/packages/arduino/hardware/megaavr/1.8.6/cores/arduino/api/ArduinoAPI.h:31:0, from /github/home/.arduino15/packages/arduino/hardware/megaavr/1.8.6/cores/arduino/Arduino.h:23, from /github/workspace/examples/11.ArduinoISP/ArduinoISP/ArduinoISP.ino:39: /github/home/.arduino15/packages/arduino/hardware/megaavr/1.8.6/cores/arduino/api/HardwareSPI.h:37:7: note: class arduino::SPISettings class SPISettings { ^~~~~~~~~~~ ``` Although it's easy enough to fix the name collision, it seemed a better idea to simply use hardware SPI when compiling for the megaAVR architecture. --- After this change, I was able to use the Uno WiFi Rev2 as an "Arduino as ISP" programmer with "Burn Bootloader" and "Upload Using Programmer".
