Fatal error softwareserial h no such file or directory

I’ve been working with Arduino a lot lately, and ran into an extremely bizarre error:

Usually, when you’re adding a new library, you need to follow specific instructions[1] about how to install that library in the Arduino IDE. So, if you’re getting this error with a non-standard Arduino library (like the Neopixel library, or something you’ve downloaded from the Internet), this error makes perfect sense. But SoftwareSerial is included with the Arduino IDE: It’s a built-in library[2]. So how on earth could it not be found? I was especially confused since I had uploaded this code not two days ago!

Here’s what I tried:

1. Checking that SoftwareSerial was indeed installed in my Arduino IDE application (These instructions are for a Mac, since that’s what I own):
   1. Select the Arduino application
   2. Chose ‘Show package Contents’ – a new window will appear.
   3. Now navigate to:
      1. Contents
      2. Resources
      3. Java
      4. hardware
      5. libraries
   4. All the standard libraries will be there.
2. Moving the entire SoftwareSerial directory from that standard location above, to the location where all installed libraries are installed on my Mac (other included libraries were installing fine):
   1. Documents/Arduino/libraries
3. Restarting Arduino IDE multiple times.
4. Downloading a completely new version of the IDE.
5. Restarting my computer.

Nothing worked: and the fact that downloading a completely new version of the IDE didn’t solve the issue meant that it was some issue with the way my Arduino/libraries folder was set up. Finally, I remembered that for another project I had edited SoftwareSerial so that it didn’t use any pins on PortD, and included that in my libraries as SoftwareSerialNoPortD. I thought that might be messing things up. A forum post taught me that if you open up the Arduino IDE and go to Sketch->IncludeLibrary… the IDE will automatically generate the import statement:

When I tried to automatically import SoftwareSerial, this is what showed up in my sketch:

Somehow, the IDE had linked SoftwareSerial with SoftwareSerialNoPortD, and couldn’t find SoftwareSerial anymore. I checked through all the files to make sure everything was named properly, and eventually found this file called library.properties:

I edited it so that it had the correct name for SoftwareSerialPortD:

Quit and restarted the Arduino IDE, and now I’m able to compile fine!

Ардуино due — последоватльные порты.

В дуе не работает библиотека Softwareserial — а данный скетч её использует. Можно ли как то связаться с мп 3 шилдом без этих библиотек — SoftwareSerial и DFPlayer_Mini_Mp3.h ?

Arduino Due отличается от других ардуино тем, что там стоит ARM, а не AVR. Соответственно многие библиотеки не подходят.

1. Зачем Вам Softwareserial? Используйте обычный «железный» сериал, в Due их аж четыре штуки.

2. Ищите для MP3-плеера библиотеку с поддержкой Arduino Due.

Библиотеки такой под дуе нет. Где можно почитать про то, как можно отредактировать библиотеку? Значит я могу функциями с этого раздела http://arduino.ru/Reference/Serial полностью через железные сериал порты управлять платой плеера?

Fatal error: SoftwareSerial.h: No such file or directory #296

Just found out this and it seems to compile OK https://github.com/jdollar/espsoftwareserial/

The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:

Why do you file this as an issue? And are 3 hardware serials not enough? No SoftSerial that uses delays could be any good on ESP32 😉

Because backwards compatibility with ESP8266 is sometimes useful whee reusing old code (lazy me :p).

Googling a bit made me find out I’m not alone and also that it’s somehow official.

I know it’s not ideal to use it but it seems good enough to compile and do simple things like talk to a GPS module that used to be plugged to an Arduino Pro Mini, then to an ESP8266, then to an ESP32, without changing any line of code.

SoftwareSerial exists because some systems do not have enough serial ports. That is not the case with ESP32. People should detect ESP32 and ifdef one line. All those SoftwareSerial libs are no good on RTOS. There is other hardware that can be used to implement SoftwareSerial and that is something I would consider including.

@tobozo to echo what @me-no-dev is saying softserial is so timing critical and brittle that I had it break just by upgrading my compiler to another one that made more efficient (and faster) code. Bit banging of time critical stuff on ESP32 just isn’t a good idea. I think it could be made to work for Softserial given that the bit rate is low, but the incentive to do this the wrong way when there are multiple UARTs with perfect timing that don’t tie up the CPU, is kind of low 🙂

Thanks for the insight, I finally ended up using HardwarsSerial although it does not share the same signature as the other versions.

fatal error: SoftwareSerial.h: No such file or directory #40

There seems to be an issue with a missing SoftwareSerial.h file when compiling.

In file included from .piolibdepsTMCStepper_ID5513srcsourceCHOPCONF.cpp:1:0:
.piolibdepsTMCStepper_ID5513src/TMCStepper.h:14:29: fatal error: SoftwareSerial.h: No such file or directory

referring to TMSStepper.h line 14.

Is there a library that has to be included?

I tried it with the current Marlin2.0.x branch and with my own project.

The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:

You need to have a SoftwareSerial library installed for whatever platform you’re compiling for.

ah, ok. I was not sure if I have to include a library manually. Thanks man

Do we have a guide posted on how to install SoftwareSerial when needed? I wonder how Travis CI is grabbing it for the tests… (Trying to get STM32 builds fixed while we get the new timer code sorted out.)

Typically the SoftwareSerial library is shipped with the platform, the same as libraries like SPI.h .
Until just recently this wasn’t the case for STM and so the platform wasn’t considered SW Serial capable. Then the library got included in the platform package but it requires extra work on PIO setup to use that update and then you’ll run into new compile issues.
Another thing that piles on top of the issues is there are two STM platforms for PIO with Arduino frameworks. STM32Duino has the library included but «Maple» supposedly doesn’t.
Overall it’s a headache I’ll gladly leave for more invested parties.

That’s an annoying change. Do you have a link to the extra steps we need to do so I can get our STM32 test builds (and end-user builds) working again?

Basically you’ll need to upgrade to the newer platform version and then sort out the compile issues.
MarlinFirmware/Marlin#15655

For now I’d just disable the STM tests and test them locally outside of Travis.

At the moment the number of nonworking STM32 builds is very annoying. Can’t build STM32F4, STM32F7, ARMED, BIGTREE_BTT002, or BIGTREE_SKR_PRO. I’m more inclined to fix them all at an older version like 5.4.3 that wasn’t as broken. We will have to set fixed versions of most libraries for our tagged releases anyway.

If you wish to use an older version, then you need a working external SoftwareSerial library.
But at least with the old version you can have the tests complete but building for STM+TMCs will fail due to the missing dependency.

The new TMC library has added support for STM including the softwareserial library included in the new STM library. So either they update both or go back both for TMC and for STM otherwise you would always have errors.

Furthermore, the softwareserial library uses timers and depending on the processor uses the first usable. In the case of Rumba32 it uses the timer7 which in turn is used for the servos. So by including the TMC library, you automatically include the softwareserial library which, using timer 7, blocks the servos, this will not give any compilation errors, but BLTOUCH will no longer work for example. I spent 2 whole days figuring out why the bltouch suddenly didn’t work anymore. Unfortunately the definition of these timers is at the level of variants.h in the STM library so they have to solve them is difficult to solve from the outside .

Adafruit SAMD Boards doesn’t include a SoftwareSerial

so what is the solution for this code:

#define RX 11 //depends on datasheet
#define TX 10 //depends on datasheet
#define pinLED 13

#include <SoftwareSerial.h>

SoftwareSerial bluetooth(TX, RX);

void setup() {

  bluetooth.begin(9600);
  bluetooth.println("AIPT, test BLE4.");
 
  Serial.begin(9600);
