#86159 I was trying to add some custom methods to a base class using inheritance but I just can't get my head around this and it keeps failing compilation.
I'm probably making some basic stupid error, please have a look:

Code: Select all#include "FS.h"

class Filesystem : public FS {
public:
    void Filesystem::mount() {
        if (!Filesystem::begin())
        {
            Serial.println("Failed to mount file system");
        }
        else {
            Serial.println("File system mounted.");
        }
    }
}myFiles;

void setup() {
    Serial.begin(115200);
    Serial.println("Mounting FS...");
    myFiles.mount();
}

void loop() {
}


Compiler output:

#86171 Little lesson "simple" inheritance not always that simple :-)
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/366 ... onstructor

https://github.com/espressif/arduino-es ... c/FS.h#L89

Code: Select all#include "FS.h"
#include <SPIFFS.h>

class Filesystem : public FS {
  public:
    Filesystem() : FS(SPIFFS) {}; // because class FS has a constructor that needs a parameter it must be called here !!!see github link!!!
    void mount() {
      //if (begin()) {}// there is no member begin() in class FS
      if (open("filename", "r")) // but there is a member called open() so we try it here
      {
        Serial.println("Failed to mount file system");
      }
      else {
        Serial.println("File system mounted.");
      }
    }
};

void setup() {
  Serial.begin(115200);
  Serial.println("Mounting FS...");
  Filesystem myFiles;
  myFiles.mount();
}

void loop() {
}


Tested and compiles and works fine.
