Problem
The definition of
Stream::readBytes
is not fully Arduino-compliant: it should accept both achar*
anduint8_t*
for its buffer pointer. Particle's default compiler settings won't allow the cast to happen automagically, which means some dependent libraries don't compile. Sadness.Solution
Create a function that accepts the missing type and forwards it with an appropriate cast.
Steps to Test
Build
device-os/main
withmake PLATFORM=argon
