NewPing library and tone function in one program??

[Tanmay_Karmakar]

Using NewPing library for a project but stuck cause I can't use tone function in that. "Error: Id returned 1 exit status......"
Why is it happening?
What is the solution?

Can you post ALL your code, not just snippets.

Mike.
Edit, don't post a picture of your code, post the text between code tags.

You'll find much more Arduino help on the official Arduino forums: forum.arduino.cc

Ok.. here it is.. without just the tone function the program compiles fine..

#include "NewPing.h"
#define echoPin 7
#define trigPin 6
#define buzzPin 8
unsigned int dly=300;
NewPing distance(trigPin, echoPin, 500);
void setup()
{
    pinMode(buzzPin, OUTPUT);
   Serial.begin(115200);
}
void loop()
{
float cm=distance.convert_cm(distance.ping_median());
Serial.println(" Subject is ");
Serial.print(cm);
Serial.print(" cm away");
    noTone(buzzPin);
    while(cm<300)
    {
       unsigned int gap=(dly-cm)*50;
        tone(buzzPin, gap, 400);
    }
}

If the program doesn't compile, what's the error message?

"NewPing.cpp:361: first defined here collect2: error: Id returned 1 exit status
Return code is not 0"

tone ( pin, frequency, duration); It specifically says unsigned int, you are passing a float.. cast it to see if it fixes

tone(buzzpin, round(gap), 400); or.. tone(buzzpin, (int)gap, 400);

Thanks.. it seems to be a silly mistake... But still the problem remains..

I've found the culprit, it's that they both use the same interrupt "vector__7". That was in the error msg, anyhow I didn't saw that earlier.

Where does it mention that in the error message?

Above the last error msg...
Sorry I can't copy paste the error msg from ArduinoDroid.
