MP3 Shield code compile

Development Boards Arduino

Hello SparkFun Forum

Having trouble getting my MP3 Shield code to compile

so I compiled one of the Examples from the Library called

HelloWorld. I still get

Arduino: 1.6.3 (Windows 7), Board: “Arduino Uno”

Build options changed, rebuilding all

C:\Program Files (x86)\Arduino\hardware\tools\avr/bin/avr-g++ -c -g -Os -w -fno-exceptions -ffunction-sections -fdata-sections -fno-threadsafe-statics -MMD -mmcu=atmega328p -DF_CPU=16000000L -DARDUINO=10603 -DARDUINO_AVR_UNO -DARDUINO_ARCH_AVR -IC:\Program Files (x86)\Arduino\hardware\arduino\avr\cores\arduino -IC:\Program Files (x86)\Arduino\hardware\arduino\avr\variants\standard C:\Users\i339617\AppData\Local\Temp\build1250832126593337175.tmp\HelloWorld.cpp -o C:\Users\i339617\AppData\Local\Temp\build1250832126593337175.tmp\HelloWorld.cpp.o

HelloWorld.ino:1:19: fatal error: SdFat.h: No such file or directory

compilation terminated.

Error compiling.

So the compiler can’t find SDFat.h.

I followed the Install Library

https://learn.sparkfun.com/tutorials/mp … eld-hookup

and

https://learn.sparkfun.com/tutorials/in … no-library

to the T.

The folder called

Sparkfun_MP3_Player_Shield_Arduino_Library_Master

is installed at

C:\Users\i339617\My Documents\Arduino\libraries

in that folder is the SDFat folder and in thet folder

is the SDFat.h file.

I have copied and deleted it in every folder I can think of.

In the IDE I can go to File > Examples and see the

Sparkfun_MP3_Player_Shield_Arduino_Library_Master

entry.

I can open examples that use other library files and compile

those sketches

But I can’t get past #include <SdFat.h> statement to complie.

Thanks

Since there are different places to get these libraries from… Where did you get the library from? The example?

I have that library and don’t have any problems…

This is the folder structure: C:\Users\Ross Robotics\Documents\Arduino\libraries\SdFat\SdFat.h

Just noticed that the ‘d’ in SdFat is capitalized in your post. Change it.
