Hey guys i'm trying to run the simple database example provided in the extended database by Madhusudana das, i'm getting the following error and i dn't know whats could be the problem cause i have the included the same file in other projects and it has worked.i'm using arduino 1.0 on a windows 7

EDB_Simple.cpp:10:22: error: WProgram.h: No such file or directory

thanks in adavance

  • The WProgram.h file, which provides declarations for the Arduino API,
    has been renamed to Arduino.h. To create a library that will work in
    both Arduino 0022 and Arduino 1.0, you can use an #ifdef that checks
    for the ARDUINO constant, which was 22 and is now 100. For example:

#if defined(ARDUINO) && ARDUINO >= 100
#include "Arduino.h"
#else
#include "WProgram.h"
#endif

I have tried using the include section u just suggested,sorry i forgot to mention that,its giving a bunch of errors about the edb header declarations which means i have to redefine the header file or something.i was hopping to try the example and see what it does and i understand it should be working with few modifications.

I had to include Arduino.h and it reduced the errors to only the one about no WProgram.h directory.

thank

You need to update the library file EDB_Simple.cpp

could please attach a link, where i can updates of the edb.ccp code.
thanks dxw00

Find the file on your PC, and make the change from the release notes in it.
