WiFi.setAutoConnect issues

[Jonathan M Nasif]

I am using my ESP32 as a root node to receive telemetry signals from a separate Arduino module. I keep running into an issue where it says that WiFiClass has no member named setAutoConnect. It tries to correct it to setAutoReconnect. Is it fine if I change the source code or will this cause issues/how do I fix this because I haven't found anything in any source files.

I updated some libraries today and painlessMesh and my timers started acting up.

my current code is:

#include "painlessMesh.h"

#define   MESH_PREFIX     "mesh123"

#define   MESH_PASSWORD   "pass123"

#define   MESH_PORT       5555

Scheduler userScheduler;

painlessMesh  mesh;

uint32_t ID;

hw_timer_t * timer = NULL;

void receivedCallback( uint32_t from, String &msg ) {

  Serial.printf("Received from %u msg= %X %s\n", from, from - 1, msg.c_str());

}

void newConnectionCallback(uint32_t nodeId) {

  Serial.printf("New Connection, nodeId = %u\n", nodeId);

  mesh.sendBroadcast("root");

}

void changedConnectionCallback() {

  Serial.printf("Changed connections\n");

}

void IRAM_ATTR Timer0_ISR(void) {

  mesh.sendBroadcast("sending");

}

void setup() {

  Serial.begin(115200);

 

  mesh.setDebugMsgTypes( ERROR | STARTUP );  

  mesh.init( MESH_PREFIX, MESH_PASSWORD, &userScheduler, MESH_PORT );

  mesh.onReceive(&receivedCallback);

  mesh.onNewConnection(&newConnectionCallback);

  mesh.onChangedConnections(&changedConnectionCallback);

  mesh.setRoot();

  mesh.setContainsRoot();

  timer = timerBegin(0, 80, true);

  timerAttachInterrupt(timer, &Timer0_ISR, true);

  timerAlarmWrite(timer, 500000, true);

  timerAlarmEnable(timer);

}

void loop() {

  mesh.update();

}

I tried changing the source code with the error, and it only ended up having the output become "E (1180060) wifi:CCMP mgmt frame from **:*:**:** used non-zero reserved bit" instead of its usual.

Similar to what is shown here https://forum.arduino.cc/t/error-with-wifi-hpp-when-compiling-painless-mesh-code/1248608

There have been WiFi API changes so my guess is you updated your ESP32 board library to 3.0.1

This build has broken many libraries with all it changes.

is there a way to go back?

I found it in this forum: https://forum.arduino.cc/t/compilation-error-i2s-read-bytes-was-not-declared-in-this-scope/1201475/10

It seems that 3.0.0 also does not work, but 2.0.17 does.

I have the same issue

esp32 (by espressif) V2.0.17 works well. Thanks a lot!
