Exit status 1, shows a bunch of errors in BLE library

[CDLXXVII]

Tried to compile an example, it took way to long and in the end exited with the following:

Examples using BLE library are compiling with no problem

Had a similar problem after the new arduino update here is what fixed my problem in the file BleMouse.cpp, esseantiall just need to change 'string' into String. Just copy this and replace the function.

`void BleMouse::taskServer(void* pvParameter) {
BleMouse* bleMouseInstance = (BleMouse *) pvParameter; //static_cast<BleMouse *>(pvParameter);
BLEDevice::init(String(bleMouseInstance->deviceName.c_str())); // Line 143 modified <<<<<<
BLEServer *pServer = BLEDevice::createServer();
pServer->setCallbacks(bleMouseInstance->connectionStatus);

bleMouseInstance->hid = new BLEHIDDevice(pServer);
bleMouseInstance->inputMouse = bleMouseInstance->hid->inputReport(0); // <-- input REPORTID from report map
bleMouseInstance->connectionStatus->inputMouse = bleMouseInstance->inputMouse;

bleMouseInstance->hid->manufacturer()->setValue(String(bleMouseInstance->deviceManufacturer.c_str())); // Line 151 modified <<<<<<

bleMouseInstance->hid->pnp(0x02, 0xe502, 0xa111, 0x0210);
bleMouseInstance->hid->hidInfo(0x00,0x02);

BLESecurity *pSecurity = new BLESecurity();

pSecurity->setAuthenticationMode(ESP_LE_AUTH_BOND);

bleMouseInstance->hid->reportMap((uint8_t*)_hidReportDescriptor, sizeof(_hidReportDescriptor));
bleMouseInstance->hid->startServices();

bleMouseInstance->onStarted(pServer);

BLEAdvertising *pAdvertising = pServer->getAdvertising();
pAdvertising->setAppearance(HID_MOUSE);
pAdvertising->addServiceUUID(bleMouseInstance->hid->hidService()->getUUID());
pAdvertising->start();
bleMouseInstance->hid->setBatteryLevel(bleMouseInstance->batteryLevel);

ESP_LOGD(LOG_TAG, "Advertising started!");
vTaskDelay(portMAX_DELAY); //delay(portMAX_DELAY);
}

cooooool bro! just fixed my problem. thx so much!

Thank you @CuldesacDude ! I needed a second similar adjustment in line 143:

BLEDevice::init(String(bleMouseInstance->deviceName.c_str()));
