Adafruit LCD Shild kit 16x2 - Help !

Post by tim036 »

I've just built the kit and now trying to test it using the Arduino IDE.

I've downloaded a Library to use a LCD Shield (Ubuntu 14.04 64 bit) so I go to Home directory, put the unzipped library into /sketchbook/libraries/ and run the program and is says it needs MCP23017.h.

But its got it already !

Tearing my hair out here !

Any thoughts anyone ?

: (((

A very puzzled,

Tim

You need to close all instances of the IDE and re-open it again before it will recognize a newly installed library.
