Description

After i tried to merge a branch i worked on on my master branch, my code suddently stop building, and some libraries that were used in the previous branch started being unable to open.
i can't build my code because some libraries aren't found by vscode. Even when i define the includepath in the c_pp_properties.json for each of them.
Not only the merged project didn't built, i picked up the previous version of my code from the commit just before the merge, and this one wasn't building anympore too
So i tried to come back to a very simple project like the hello_world template from ESP-IDF, to see if it was only coming from my program, but turns out the same kind of problem occurs. i followed the "Arduino as a ESP-IDF component" tutorial on the espressif website (https://docs.espressif.com/projects/arduino-esp32/en/latest/esp-idf_component.html) to be sure i made things correctly but still

currently the file that cannot be open is "portmacro.h" but it wasn't the same on the previous program (can't remember the name) and it changed several times.

i tried to run both of the code on ESP-IDF v5.2.2, v5.1.2, v5.1.3, v4.4.7 but it didn't worked.

Also i don't know if it's related but i'm putting it here just in case, in the IntelliSense configurations page, one of my include path isn't found even though it's not in the include path section of the c_cpp_properties.json.

Other Steps to Reproduce

-tried to build the program on several version of ESP-IDF(v4.4.7, v5.1.2, v5.1.3, v5.2.2) non of them worked
-tried to add the includePath suggested by the quick fix (see next screenshot) but didn't worked

I have checked existing issues, online documentation and the Troubleshooting Guide

You need ESP-IDF v5.1.4

[Victor-stll]

I installed it and it works for the basic hello world code, but back in my original code it doesn't work anymore. i did run the exact same way and i got this in result, any idea ? i tried to include <gpio_types.h> or <esp32_mock.h> as suggested but i didn't solved the problem

Failed to resolve component 'arduino'.

Most likely one of your components has REQUIRES arduino (or PRIV_REQUIRES) in its CMakeLists.txt.

After you have installed Arduino from the component registry, the component name is going to be espressif__arduino-esp32.

[Victor-stll]

thank you for your help, it seemed to work, but it revealed an other issue
some of the GPIO's i was using wern't found (such as GPIO_NUM_46 or 41) but it was just because the espressif target was esp32 instead of esp32s3. so i tried to change it but each time i select the esp32s3 target, the following error messag appear :

[Error: non zero exit code 2 Directory 'C:\Users\victor.stella\Documents\HUPI\project-debug-tuto\build' doesn't seem to be a CMake build directory. Refusing to automatically delete files in this directory. Delete the directory manually to 'clean' it. Adding "set-target"'s dependency "fullclean" to list of commands with default set of options. Executing action: fullclean at ChildProcess.

i tried to manually delete the build directory, the managed component directory, or sdkconfig whatever nothing worked

so i tried to create a new program to set the good target before doing anything, then paste my whole code. got a different error :
