I asked this question before, and I am ashamed to ask this question again, but I have encountered the"Error Compiling" message when I try to compile my program. When I asked this question last time, I was asked to add

// WCharacter.h prototypes
inline boolean isAlphaNumeric(int c) __attribute__((always_inline));

to the program, or to put an other deceleration in the front. But this time these two methods don't work. Can anyone help me? A million thanks.
P.S. This is the code I am trying to compile:

#include "pitches.h"
#include <IRremote.h>
int RECV_PIN = 8;
int ledPin =  7;
IRrecv irrecv(RECV_PIN);
decode_results results;
void setup()
{
  Serial.begin(9600);
  irrecv.enableIRIn(); // Start the receiver
  pinMode(ledPin, OUTPUT);
}
 
void loop() {
 
  if (irrecv.decode(&results)) {
    Serial.println(results.value, DEC);
  }
    if(results.value == 150996993){
      tone(6, NOTE_C4, 4);
  }
    if(results.value == 151029889){
      tone(6, NOTE_D4, 4);
    }
    if(results.value == 151013441){
      tone(6, NOTE_E4, 4);
    }
    irrecv.resume(); // Receive the next value
  }

Please post the exact error message here.

Also, do you have pitches.h in another tab?

[Reply #2 on:]

The error message is "error compiling", and I do have "pitches.h" on in the other tab.

No, an error looks like this (copied arbitrarily from another thread):

Code:

Oh ok this is what it is:

[Reply #5 on:]

It appears the tone library and IRremote library both user timer 2 interrupts to do their work.

[Reply #6 on:]

So what can I do about it?

[Reply #7 on:]

(a) don't use tone (not ideal)
(b) modify the IR library to use a different timer (not *too* difficult)

Which arduino do you have? (Mega, Uno, Leonardo etc.)

[Reply #8 on:]

I have a Mega 2560. How do I modify the timer?
P.S. I modified the code so it doesn't use "pitches.h".

#include <IRremote.h>
int RECV_PIN = 8;
int ledPin =  7;
IRrecv irrecv(RECV_PIN);
decode_results results;
void setup()
{
  Serial.begin(9600);
  irrecv.enableIRIn(); // Start the receiver
  pinMode(ledPin, OUTPUT);
}
 
void loop() {
 
  if (irrecv.decode(&results)) {
    Serial.println(results.value, DEC);
  }
    if(results.value == 150996993){
      tone(6, 262, 4);
  }
    if(results.value == 151029889){
      tone(6, 294, 4);
    }
    if(results.value == 151013441){
      tone(6, 330, 4);
    }
    irrecv.resume(); // Receive the next value
  }

For future reference please use code tags for code, not quotes.

Read this before posting a programming question

I know there is a "Copy for forum" in the Arduino IDE. Please don't use it. <sigh>
