B4R Question FastPID Library Wrapper error

Continuing to try and wrap my first library. I would really appreciate some help if anyone can let me know what I am doing wrong. I tried to use a few other library wrappers as guides but no luck so far( rNewPing for one ). On a positive note the rFastPID library looks good in B4X Object Browser. I zipped the files rFastPID xml, and the 2 h and 2 cpp files below.
The FastPID library works in Arduino 1.8.12 (tried verify/compile) with the voltage regulator example sketch with a ESP8266 board selected.
The source for the Arduino library is here https://github.com/mike-matera/FastPID

Verifying...

Bunch of errors follow but I would guess they are all caused from the above first error.

Come on 21 views and no replies ??? Just Kidding :cool:
I FINALLY have the library wrapper I wrote compiling and running on the esp8266.

B4X:
#pragma once
#include "B4RDefines.h"
#include "FastPID.h"

namespace B4R {
    
//~Version: 1.00
//~shortname: FastPID
    class B4RFastPID {
        private:
            uint8_t beFpid[sizeof(FastPID)];
            FastPID* fpid;
        public:
        void Initialize(float kp, float ki, float kd, float hz, int bits, bool sign);

B4X:
#include "B4RDefines.h"

namespace B4R {
    void B4RFastPID::Initialize(float kp, float ki, float kd, float hz, int bits, bool sign) {
        fpid =  new (beFpid) FastPID(kp, ki, kd, hz, bits, sign);
        fpid-> clear();

    } // End intialize

Ended up reading this post from Erel, among 50 other posts on wrappers and C/C++ code ...

In the end, I think I had some of the references as FastPid and not FastPID.
I believe I was also missing the #include "FastPID.h" in my rFastPID.h file.

I "started" trying to wrap a PID library a year ago and it got put on the shelf for other work and family stuff.
Now I get to see if my wrapped library actually works for my intended purpose.

I almost gave up a couple of times, but hey life is about the journey, not the destination, right ?
Be Well with B4R ! LOL or should that be, B4X !
