Arduino 1.8.7 Compile Failure (Works in 1.8.5)

[SukkoPera]

This sketch does not compile on Arduino 1.8.7, producing the following error:

G:/Arduino/TAFFY/TAFFY_V1.3/TAFFY_V1.3.ino:65:19: error: 'ricetta' was not declared in this scope

This happens because the automatically generated function prototypes are inserted too early, before struct ricetta is defined, as shown in the preprocessed sketch.

This didn't happen in Arduino 1.8.5, which put the prototypes just before the setup() function. Preprocessor output is here.

This issue was raised by user gianlucaf on the Arduino forums.

Hi @SukkoPera ,
the issue has been already described by arduino/arduino-builder#292 and fixed with arduino/arduino-builder#294 .

I'd close this one to keep track of the issue in one place only; in the meantime, if you could test arduino/arduino-builder#294 (comment) and report back it would be great 🙂
