Xively library does not compile in version 1.6.4, it never finish compiling

Hello to all,
I've tried to compile the examples of Xively library (downloaded from the library manager), and the progress bar while compiling get stuck at about 40%, it never finish, so I can't see any error.
I am using the 1.6.4 Windows version, Does anyone know a workaround for this?
thank you in advance!
Adolfo.

I see the same problem - @adolfocobo, did you find a work-around for this?

Thanks.

I did.

The major issue is the Xively library is obsolete and relies with the external HTTPClient library developed by amcewen (GitHub - amcewen/HttpClient: Arduino HTTP library).

The thing is that the Bridge Yun library comes with a HTTPClient class, so Arduino tries his best into compiling but fails dramatically because HTTPClient Yún relies on the Linux side to make HTTP get calls.

So, in order to avoid this problem you need to:

1.- Download the external HTTPClient library fom amcewen: https://github.com/amcewen/HttpClient/archive/master.zip

2.- Extract it under libraries folder on your Arduino Sketch dir or installation root folder

3.- Open Arduino IDE, compile and watch compilation log

4.- Log must warn you about using external HTTPClient library instead of Bridge one

5.- Enjoy :slight_smile:
