Hello. I am trying to program a 1.8" TFT LCD with my arduino. While running the sample coe provided, I am getting several error messages…
graphicstest_highspeed:31: error: 'ST7735 does not name a type
There are several other messages but this is the main message. Here is the full sample code:
// Pins SCLK and MOSI are fixed in hardware, and pin 10 (or 53)
// must be an output
//#define sclk 13 // for MEGAs use pin 52
//#define mosi 11 // for MEGAs use pin 51
#define cs 10 // for MEGAs you probably want this to be pin 53
#define dc 9
#define rst 8 // you can also connect this to the Arduino reset
// Color definitions
#define BLACK 0x0000
#define BLUE 0x001F
#define RED 0xF800
#define GREEN 0x07E0
#define CYAN 0x07FF
#define MAGENTA 0xF81F
#define YELLOW 0xFFE0
#define WHITE 0xFFFF
#include <ST7735.h>
#include <SPI.h>
// Option 1: use any pins but a little slower
//ST7735 tft = ST7735(cs, dc, mosi, sclk, rst);
// Option 2: must use the hardware SPI pins
// (for UNO thats sclk = 13 and sid = 11) and pin 10 must be
// an output. This is much faster - also required if you want
// to use the microSD card (see the image drawing example)
ST7735 tft = ST7735(cs, dc, rst);

Thanks for all the help guys! What am I doing wrong? (And yes I have the ST7735 library installed)
