ESP32 compatibility about asynchttprequest HOT 9 CLOSED

I've started a project that uses this on ESP32, so I'll be working through issues over the next month or so. Stay tuned for updates.

@MkLHX it seems to work (sort of) if you simply change all #include <ESPAsyncTCP.h> to #include <AsyncTCP.h> in all the library files. However, it seems to be causing heap poising after a few minutes of activity. Not yet investigated whether this is an issue with this repo, or AsyncTCP

Hi @JarrettR, i tested this, but still crash my esp32 every time i call the lib's methods.

Since few hours, i fixed an other issue from arduino-esp32 sdkconfig file in platformio core.
The WiFi feature looks working better.
May have the time to try debug the lib with AsyncTCP instead of ESPAsyncTCP

from asynchttprequest.

I've been trying and finding that a core panic usually takes place within the IDF tcp code, and the stack back trace seems to suggest AsyncTCP may be to blame by using more closed slots than allowed after several client connects.
This is using an esp-prog in JTAG mode.

The (un-commented) printed debug info seems to suggest that the FIN handlers never get called despite FIN packets being present in the Wireshark trace.

Will be interesting to find others experiences.

Have made some progress with my core panics.

Firstly I have added some bounds checking to all the places in AsyncTCP tries to use _closed_slot as an array index, this prevents badness in several places there - but the cause still needs to be understood:

if(msg->closed_slot >= 16 || msg->closed_slot < -1) {
  Serial.printf("CLOSED SLOTS BOUNDS!! _tcp_recv_api (%d)\r\n", msg->closed_slot);
  return msg->err;
}
if(msg->closed_slot == -1 || !_closed_slots[msg->closed_slot]) {
    ... 

I then still had random failures where it looked like a race condition during the connect / send phases of asyncHTTPrequest causing core panics.
I solved that by altering the sample code to NOT call send() after open(), but hold that off until the request callback, adding a readyState = 1 condition:

void sendRequest(){
    if(request.readyState() == 0 || request.readyState() == 4){
        request.open("GET", "http://worldtimeapi.org/api/timezone/Europe/London.txt");
    }
}

void requestCB(void* optParm, asyncHTTPrequest* pRequest, int readyState){
    if(readyState == 4){  // response
        String JSONinfo(pRequest->responseText());
        Serial.println(JSONinfo);
        Serial.println();
    }
    if(readyState == 1) {  // connected
      pRequest->send();
    }
}

It has now ran for a good deal longer without issue, scraping a simple webpage for now.

The AsyncTCP closed slot issue is obviously not directly this library's fault, but needs to understood so it can be rectified. (eg: WTF is a closed slot anyway?)

I've started using asyncHTTPrequest in an ESP32 project. Now using the correct AsyncTCP library for ESP32 and have added a mutex semaphore to protect the data structures in multi-threaded operation. Seems to be working well now in my application (IoTaWatt). Have bumped version to 1.2.0 for ESP32 support. Assuming all will be fine with ESP8266 as nothing really changed there, but will update the ESP8266 version of IoTaWatt to use 1.2.0. Going to close this issue as most of this looks like it could be the thread corruption problem. Please file new issue if problems persist with this version.

I'm not supporting this for ESP32. You can get async HTTP by running any client in a FREErtos task. My esp32HTTPrequest works for me in that environment.
