BiColor LEDs (New Problem)

[doctorwho8]

Hello!
I just returned to the Arduino after another absence. I decided to try and see if I could apply the ideas for making use of the classic bicolor LED. And chose to try and get to work with 1.05 the examples from the Playground.

However it causes an error, here:

BiColorLED:9: error: 'BiColorLED' does not name a type
BiColorLED.pde: In function 'void loop()':
BiColorLED:19: error: 'led' was not declared in this scope
BiColorLED:38: error: 'led' was not declared in this scope

That was shown in the sketch here:

BiColorLED led=BiColorLED(4,5); // (pin 1, pin 2)

As it happens I went and changed the header portion to accommodate the settings for running on everything after 1.x releases.

It looks like the BiColorLED library is not properly installed.

Hello!
Okay, that worked. I'll concede the point. However what about mentioning that on the Playground page?

Mentioning what?

I general if you get the error: "'name' does not name a type" it means that you either spelled 'name' wrong or the library that defines the name was not installed.

Hello!
I beg your pardon, what I posted there,

However what about mentioning that on the Playground page?

Should say "However what about mentioning that one on the Playground page?". Implying that anyone wanting to make use of his (the creator of the library) library, should be aware of how to properly install any library.

Yes.  Every Playground page that references a library should have a pointer to: http://arduino.cc/en/Guide/Libraries
