As the error message says, SoftwareSerial class on ESP8266 doesn't have member called listen. If you have some suggestion about this, please open an issue in SoftwareSerial repository here: https://github.com/plerup/espsoftwareserial

@igrr EspSoftwareSerial supports listen() method since 3.2.0.
Default version in ESP8266 is 3.1.0.
Is there a chance to get an updated version?

[igrr]

Uhm, sure, i didn't know there was a more recent version. In the past @plerup would make a PR to update the version used. Should I update it to 3.2.3, which is the latest?

[olehs]

Yes, the latest version is compatible with AVR's one and seems to work fine

[plerup]

Sorry about that, forgot 😬

Good evening guys, I was researching on the softwareserial for nodemcu and came to stop here. I'm new here and I'm starting to program with the module and I had a problem with this listen class. I wonder if you have any library that solves this problem. Thanks in advance.
