@@MyFlippinLife That's awesome! I see you are over 5k subs, that rocks! I just got back into making videos again. I stocked up on parts not long ago, going to try to make some more original projects and videos soon. Right now I am trying to cover some of the quirks and some how to videos about the new raspberry pi pico W micro controller. That's been the focus this month, I did a video on C.B. radio basics because someone requested it. I see you are focusing on Halloween stuff now, that's cool. I might do some prop animation control stuff in September or so.

got quite far but encoutering this. -- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred! [proc] The command: "C:\Program Files\CMake\bin\cmake.EXE" --no-warn-unused-cli -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE:STRING=Debug -DCMAKE_EXPORT_COMPILE_COMMANDS:BOOL=TRUE -C C:\pico\pico-sdk\pico-examples -SC:/pico/pico-sdk/pico-examples -Bc:/pico/pico-sdk/pico-examples/build -G Ninja exited with code: 1

Right at the end where of this video it tells you how to set the environment variables to build the TCP examples. I found that using set for all four did not work. Instead I had to use the following: set(PICO_BOARD pico_w CACHE STRING "Board type") add_compile_definitions(WIFI_SSID="yournetwork") add_compile_definitions(WIFI_PASSWORD="yourpassword") add_compile_definitions(TEST_TCP_SERVER_IP="youripaddress")

Strange, I will have to look into it. Maybe something has updated, but set seemed to work for me.

Sorry about NOOB question but I did add the lines at the end of video to compile the Pico W examples but this did not compile the Pico W examples. Am I missing something?

Not a noob question at all, Maybe I was not as clear at the end as I should have been. After you add the lines and set the values as you need, save the CMakelists file. Then vs code should reconfigure the project enabling the pico w examples to be built when you run the build by clicking the build button at the bottom of vs code.

Looks like the Visual Studio Build Tools requires a valid VS license - for those who wants to use it commercially.

Yeah, education use is OK, but commercial licenses are different.

ok for the most part, but just ok. the speed up of the video makes it very difficult to follow and wasnt needed. and you go lazy at the end, instead of showing how to do it, just talked about it. had to search else where to get these magical pico examples. blowing through some of the steps at 3000x speed seems pointless (if you cant make it out whats happening whats the point of adding it to the video), some of them took 30 times to try and pause the video just at the right moment so you can see what you clicked.

Hi. There is now one click download and setup available.

Could you please share the one-click tool? Thanks.

why does the pico W need that information to compile a blink sketch?

I think its more the build tools that need all the excess information.

Looks like it would be easier to just use a Linux VM as it appears after watching a bunch of videos the stuff is much more streamlined on Linux

Yes, there are easier ways to go about setting up to program the pi pico series. Linux is an option, using the Arduino IDE and the right library is another to start programing it fast.
