Is IoT/remote capbilities "Device client connection to remote server using popular libraries" still supported? I tried Arduino ESP32 and Ethernet 2 libraries but the code generation seems incomplete?

When I run tcMenuGenerator I get errors such as:

In file included from src/src_menu.h:6:0,
from src\generated\TcmDCC_menu.cpp:14:

It should work completely, obviously we can't test every possible combination of library and board, but I've recently tested quite a few of them and they were all working (AVR/Ethernet2, STM32/Stm32Ethernet, ESP32/WiFi, Arduino32/WiFi, mbed/LwIP).

The best thing to do is to provide the version of TcMenu you're using, an example sketch that recreates the issue, and the either the platformIO configuration, or the Arduino board IDE setup that you used.

Only Java clients can handle the client remote at the moment, it's intended for when you need to aggregate data from many devices on a server somewhere. Just to combine a few menus you could Java APIs menu in menu.

We're just preparing a new repository now that will be available by the weekend. It includes:

• A complete example of how to build an embedded application on Raspberry PI.
• The original EmbedControl UI with instructions how to build it, should make your life much easier.
• Examples of how to use the Java API with most of the possible permutations covered.
• An example of simple Java web sockets without needing Jetty, using a lighter web socket library. For cases when Apache or other webserver is hosting the static content.

Longer term:

• A couple of examples of the DotNet API showing how to use it.
• A couple of examples of the Python API showing how to use it.
• A UI that will be the approximate equivalent of EmbedControl built using Flutter (iOS and Android)
• Examples of the dart API

Thanks. Sounds good.

with the above repo, you should be able to build the Embed Control UI, customize it to your needs and package it.

Many thanks for the new repo. I'm going to have fun going through it :<)
