Arduino ESP32 2.0.18 release notes breaking changes

💡 Result:

  • Espressif did not release an “Arduino-ESP32 core v2.0.18”. Arduino’s “2.0.18-20240930.arduino3” package exists because Arduino needed to ship urgent fixes on top of Espressif v2.0.17 and bumped the version only to trigger IDE auto-update. As a result, the version macros still report 2.0.17. [1]
  • Release notes: Arduino staff/forum moderators state Arduino did not publish real release notes for these Arduino-specific 2.0.18-* builds; the only “notes” are effectively the commit diff in their repo. [3]
  • Breaking changes (practically):
    • Windows/IDE2 compile failures due to long platform folder name 2.0.18-20240930.arduino3 (path length issues). A workaround was to rename the installed platform folder. [2]
    • A later update 2.0.18-arduino.5 is mentioned as including fixes for this topic (including “a shorter name”). [2]

Sources: [1] Arduino Forum thread with Arduino maintainer explanation of 2.0.18-* being 2.0.17+fixes, [2] Arduino Forum compile-error thread & later fix mention, [3] Arduino Forum note about lack of release notes.

Tasmota platform-espressif32 2024.06.00 release

💡 Result:

Tasmota’s platform-espressif32 2024.06.00 release (tagged June 29, 2024) is the Tasmota PlatformIO ESP32 platform update that moves to Tasmota Arduino Core 2.0.18 (noted as “with IPv6 support”) and is based on ESP-IDF 4.4.8. [1]

Release/tag notes also mention:

  • Update examples.yml
  • Delete examples/tasmota_platformio_override.ini
  • “Platform 2024.06.00 Tasmota Core 2.0.18” [2]

Verify Windows IDE2 compatibility with Arduino 2.0.18 platform folder naming.

The platform URL is accessible and Tasmota 2024.06.00 release exists. However, Arduino's 2.0.18 build (2.0.18-20240930.arduino3) introduces a documented breaking change: Windows IDE2 compile failures due to the long platform folder name. Versions prior to 2.0.18-arduino.5 are affected.

Confirm that Windows IDE2 users are either excluded from this platform or that the Tasmota build uses a patched Arduino version (2.0.18-arduino.5 or later) that includes a shorter folder name. If not, provide a workaround for Windows IDE2 developers.

In `@platformio.ini` at line 431, The platformTasmota entry points at
platform-espressif32.zip for Tasmota 2024.06.00 which may break Windows IDE2 due
to the long Arduino 2.0.18 platform folder name (seen in Arduino build
2.0.18-20240930.arduino3); verify Windows IDE2 compatibility and either (A)
replace the URL with a known patched Arduino-2.0.18-arduino.5-or-later build of
platform-espressif32 (update platformTasmota to that patched ZIP), or (B)
explicitly exclude/document Windows IDE2 users and provide a workaround entry
(e.g., a platformTasmota_win that points to a trimmed-name ZIP or instructs to
manually rename the platform folder) so Windows IDE2 developers won’t hit the
long-folder-name compile failure. Ensure you reference and update the
platformTasmota definition and the platform-espressif32 ZIP target when applying
the fix.
