"Simple Broadcast Example" sketch from "Getting Started With the Arduino SPE Shield" fails to compile

[bobcmartin]

The "Simple Broadcast Example" sketch provided in the "Getting Started With the Arduino SPE Shield" tutorial (https://github.com/arduino/docs-content/blob/537360e1c4f045361257d47641a5dcb7251abc71/content/hardware/02.hero/shields/spe-shield/tutorials/getting-started/spe-getting-started.md#simple-broadcast-example) fails to compile:

Compilation error: no matching function for call to 'TC6::TC6_Arduino_10BASE_T1S::TC6_Arduino_10BASE_T1S(TC6::TC6_Io*&)'

The error above occurred when compiling for a MKR Zero board, but it can be replicated for any target.

---

This occurs when using the latest release version 0.1.1 of the "Arduino_10BASE_T1S" library, and when using the latest development version ab6fc32

[razvanphp]

You can use v0.1.0 which compiles or you can replace this line:

networkController = new TC6::TC6_Arduino_10BASE_T1S(networkIO);  // <- TC6_Io*

with

networkController = new TC6::TC6_Arduino_10BASE_T1S(*networkIO);

PS: crazy how this is "off topic"

crazy how this is "off topic"

@razvanphp it is off topic because it is a report about a bug in code hosted in the arduino/docs-content repository, but was instead submitted to the issue tracker of the arduino-libraries/Arduino_10BASE_T1S repository. Reports about problems with code hosted in other repositories are off topic for this issue tracker.

This issue tracker is only to be used to report bugs with the code hosted in this repository. It will not be effective to track bugs with code hosted in other repositories from this issue tracker.
