Making it simpler to use multiple OneWire buses with an arduino array

[prashantdev]

I'm a novice at C, so feel free to correct my SNAFUs.

[JoakimSoderberg]

This line gives me this error:

Multibus_simple:8: error: no matching function for call to 'OneWire::OneWire()'
 OneWire ds18x20[oneWirePinsCount];
                                 ^

I guess because there is no constructor that takes an array as argument?

[JoakimSoderberg]

Oh wait, I got a bit confused there... This example is for the DallasTemperature.h lib... And is already merged there... However, since this change was never merged into this library, that example won't work with the official version of this library.

Another error I'm getting:

Multibus_simple:23: error: 'class OneWire' has no member named 'setPin'
     ds18x20[i].setPin(oneWirePins[i]);
                ^

@ntruchsess Please look at this Pull Request

Joakim: since ntruchsess has not updated thearduino-OneWire library in the
past 3 years, you may directly use my fork, which is only a shade under a
year, and thus, up-to-date.

@prashantdev yea I know, are you planning on keeping on maintaining the lib? I just want this stuff to be in the "official" version of the lib. It sucks if people have to go hunt for some special version of a lib to get things to work. But I guess this is normal in the arduino community, where most sketches are copy and paste, it just irks me :)

Hmm but now I read the comment in the header, and see that https://github.com/PaulStoffregen/OneWire is the "real" version. And that this one is just a fork.... So yea, very confusing. Not to mention the Wire.h that comes with the Arduino release. So I'd suggest you fork his repo and do your PR towards that instead.

@ntruchsess If you have abandoned this fork, I think it would be nice to link to https://github.com/PaulStoffregen/OneWire and mark this repository as dead.

This problem is occurring because Mikes Burton has implemented my changes
in arduino temperature control library, but OneWire is still not updated.

And no. I am not qualified to update the onewire library. My knowledge of c is too limited
