How to fix PlatformIO fatal error: stm32f429i_discovery_lcd.h: No such file or directory

Problem:

You are trying to compile your PlatformIO application using  the LCD_DISCO_F429ZI library, but you see an error message like

 #include "stm32f429i_discovery_lcd.h"
          ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
compilation terminated.
*** [.pio\build\disco_f429zi\src\main.o] Error 1
In file included from .pio\libdeps\disco_f429zi\LCD_DISCO_F429ZI_ID2432\LCD_DISCO_F429ZI.cpp:19:0:
.pio\libdeps\disco_f429zi\LCD_DISCO_F429ZI_ID2432\LCD_DISCO_F429ZI.h:25:10: fatal error: stm32f429i_discovery_lcd.h: No such file or directory

Solution:

First, ensure that BSP_DISCO_F429ZI is listed is library dependency in platformio.ini like this:

[env:disco_f429zi]
platform = ststm32
board = disco_f429zi
framework = mbed
lib_deps =
    LCD_DISCO_F429ZI
    BSP_DISCO_F429ZI

 

Replace the line

#include "stm32f429i_discovery_lcd.h"

in LCD_DISCO_F429ZI.h with

#include "Drivers/BSP/STM32F429I-Discovery/stm32f429i_discovery_lcd.h"
