Conflict between Lib i2c_t3 and Adafruit_GFX.g / Adafruit_SSD1306.h

[Chris2019]

Trying to use mutiple of small OLED displays with help i2c switch TCA9548 - Adafruit breakout.
The code to control OLED with TCA95948 worked on a Arduino micro pro, but not then I shifted to Teensy due to I need the MidiUSB support which Teensy has built in.
Apparently the normal Wire.h library does not work with Teensy 3.2 and TCA9548, so I tried to use the i2c_t3.h instead.
But I get mutiple of compiling errors after I shift from Wire.h to i2c_t3.h
Then I tried reinstall the full software (Arduio + Teensy) and run a code from the forum to see if it works, but still error, conflict between the different libraries.


I used this code to check if my installation is ok:
https://forum.pjrc.com/archive/index.php/t-33298.html

Different application, different input, but still use the same libraries and the TCA9548

#include <Adafruit_GFX.h>
#include <gfxfont.h>
#include <Adafruit_SSD1306.h>
#include <i2c_t3.h>

And get this error:

The I run the standard shift function from Adafruit with the Wire.h, nothing happens, that is why I tried to shift to the enhanced i2c_t3.h

This is the normal shift function; which works on Arduino micro pro but not on a Teensy 3.2 if using the Wire.h

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

#define TCAADDR 0x70

void tcaselect(uint8_t i) {
if (i > 7) return;

Wire.beginTransmission(TCAADDR);
Wire.write(1 << i);
Wire.endTransmission();
}

How do you use the Libraires: i2c_t3.h, Adafruit_GFX.g and Adafruit_SSD1306.h in the same code?
Looking forward to some good tips, I am stuck
Or any other good idea how to use a TCA9548 with a Teensy 3.2.

How do you use the Libraires: i2c_t3.h, Adafruit_GFX.g and Adafruit_SSD1306.h in the same code?

Usually, you don't. Use the Wire library instead of i2c_t3.

 

[KurtE]

Again not sure why TCA9548 would not work with Wire library but would with i2c_t3?

But these two libraries can not co-exist in the same sketch either directly or through libraries.

That is if you include i2c_t3, and want to use another library that uses the Wire library. You often then have to make a copy of that library (maybe with different name) and edit it to replace all of the #include <Wire.h> to #include <i2c_t3.h>

You may then also have to change some of the code in the library as i2c_t3 is not 100% compatible with Wire. In particular things like: setSCL and setSDA are not implemented. He has a different way to handle alternate pins.

Good luck
