Arduino Piccolo Example Script Error

Question

So I am trying to make an audio visualizer from this tutorial listed here.

So I downloaded all the files needed, and downloaded the code. But when I try to verify it, I get this Error:

C:\Users\ted\Desktop\Arduino_Sandbox_Windows_01\Arduino\libraries\Robot_Control\ArduinoRobot.cpp: In constructor 'RobotControl::RobotControl()':

I've looked this up before, and couldn't find anything on it. So I came here for a last resort.

Any ideas?

EDIT: So I reinstalled the folders, and renamed the LED folder but now I get a new error:

Piccolo:112: error: 'Adafruit_BicolorMatrix' does not name a type Piccolo.pde: In function 'void setup()': Piccolo:130: error: 'matrix' was not declared in this scope Piccolo.pde: In function 'void loop()': Piccolo:168: error: 'matrix' was not declared in this scope Piccolo:168: error: 'LED_RED' was not declared in this scope Piccolo:169: error: 'LED_YELLOW' was not declared in this scope Piccolo:170: error: 'LED_GREEN' was not declared in this scope Piccolo:207: error: 'LED_OFF' was not declared in this scope Piccolo:210: error: 'LED_OFF' was not declared in this scope

EDIT 2: Deleted Robot_Control and got this error:

Answer 1

As I mentioned in the comments, reinstalling/updating all your 3rd party libraries to the latest versions is probably the first thing to try. Updating the IDE itself may also help.

If that hasn't worked then a forum topic here seems to describe the same kind of issue: http://forum.arduino.cc/index.php?topic=168854.0

One of the users seems to have tracked the problem down to a couple of Adafruit libraries. He suggests the following:

1) Delete the folder "Robot_Control" from Program Files\Arduino\libraries\

2) Make sure, that the two Adafruit folders in the same folder are named Adafruit_GFX and Adafruit_ST7735. I had them named "AdafruitGFX" and "AdafruitST7735", but that was wrong.

Deleting the Robot_Control folder doesn't sound like an ideal solution to me, but perhaps there's an incompatibility which can't be easily fixed. Unfortunately, the Arduino IDE handles libraries in a slightly strange way, so weird problems can happen from time to time.
