Just submitted a patch to LiquidCrystal library to support the Arduino Due

[jockm]

I am doing a project on the Arduino Due that needed to use a I2C LCD, only to discover that the code doesn't compile on the Due. I dove in and discovered that the changes needed were minimal: adding a conditional #define for _BV(), and removing the #include for pgmspace.h

I have submitted a pull request on github, and hopefully Adafruit will incorporate it soon. I am sure I am not the only Due owner who wanted to do that

In the mean time, those interested can get my fork here: https://github.com/jockm/LiquidCrystal

Thanks!

Out of curiosity, do you guys have any idea if/when this pull request (or at least the trivial change needed) will be accepted?

With the recent blog posts about compatibility it seems like this is a quick win to allow the use of I2C LiquidCrystal on the Due and most other non AVR based Arduino systems.

Hi there, sorry we didn't see it! We'll ask someone to test and pull ASAP

Excellent! Thank you very much.

And...?

Merged!
Sorry it fell through the cracks like that.

Awesome! Thank you so very much.
