Issue of I2C library

[KK13221]

Hello @RJRP44,

I have encountered an error when compiling the code and I have tried multiple solutions and searched on Google for hours but I am still unable to solve it. Could you please help me with this issue? I am getting this error message on the serial monitor.

Error Message
"i2c: This driver is an old driver, please migrate your application code to adapt `driver/i2c_master.h"

Hi @KK13221
This library was developed before the release of the brand new I²C driver. Normally for now this is not a ground breaking feature, it should still work fine. I am looking into the adaptation of this library for this new update.
Have a great day

Hello,

We're gradually approaching the need to implement the new i2c driver. I noticed this isn't a minor modification, and it will require an assessment of how far back it can maintain compatibility, including what the minimum version of esp-idf will be affected.

For instance, the new approach necessitates including an i2c_master_bus_config_t structure as part of the VL53L5CX_Platform structure.

Additionally, our current project involves connecting multiple slave sensors to the ESP master i2c bus, which complicates things further. 😅

We'll start working on replacing the i2c driver soon and I’ll update here once we make some progress. I’d appreciate it if anyone could share their experiences or insights on this matter.

I worked on it today and got it to work with the new I²C driver, but there's still some testing to be done. The update should be available soon.

Sorry for taking so long but the new version is finally here ! vl53l5cx v4.0.0.
This version is based on the new i²c driver from idf v5.4 so make sure to update your code accordingly and your idf version.
Let me know if it works !
