I'm trying to add an SD card to my project using the ESP8266SdFat library as I would like to use the software spi. I tried it in my program first and then after I encountered the error I'm trying to just get one of the examples to compile, but I always get the following error, datalogger.ino example:

I have upgraded arduino, esp8266 and visual micro to the latest version but no change in the error in either IDE. I have not been able to find any other post about this and am at a loss on how to correct. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

- Sat Jun 20, 2020 6:51 pm #87603 I don't believe to. The calling function and the function being called are in the same library. From what understand due to conflicts with other file systems, name spaces are used and the called functions are within the declared namespace. I've looked in the library and it seems to be good. I'm not sure if the problem in the library or since it appears to be working for others, a problem with the setup on my computer. I've reinstalled the Arduino IDE but that has not made a difference. Would there be any other suggestions to try?

no problem here. did you change something in the dataLogger example?
