pins_arduino.h not found

No pins_arduino.h in the variants

I am using red board Artemis nano with 2.8" adafruit TFT LCD shield. For simple graphic test, I am getting error
pins_arduino.h: No such file or directory

workbench

• I am using Arduino IDE version 1.8.9
• The Arduino is connected as shown here:
  https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-2-8-tft-touch-shield-v2/connecting

Expected behaviour

The LCD screen should show graphical outputs

Actual behaviour

Arduino: 1.8.9 (Windows Store 1.8.21.0) (Windows 10), Board: "SparkFun RedBoard Artemis Nano, 115200, Ambiq Secure Bootloader (Advanced)"

C:\Users\Documents\Arduino\libraries\Adafruit_ILI9341\Adafruit_ILI9341.cpp:52:12: fatal error: pins_arduino.h: No such file or directory
#include "pins_arduino.h"
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
compilation terminated.

Wow GitHub is getting smart... I just said "Fixes #65" in the PR and this issue got automatically closed...

As pointed out by @nseidle the pins_arduino.h file seems to be a predecessor to variant files. I took a glance at the Adafruit libraries and they seem to use the standard interfaces (digitalWrite, SPIClass etc...) so all we needed to do was include an empty pins_arduino.h

I also had to add wiring_private.h and a weak definition for the yield() function.

Your example should now compile. Please let us know if it works for you.

Oh.... to test this out you'll need to get v1.0.12 through the Arduino boards manager. I'll have it posted in under an hour

[oclyke]

Ok, v1.0.12 is released w/ the fixes

Now I am able to upload the sketch without any error but I am unable to see the desired graphical output.

I would recommend double checking your pin / SPI port assignments. Otherwise it would be best to check in with the creators of the TFT product that you are using because they will have better insight.
