Encoder causes esp32 to crash when using platformIO

[BrentRoberson]

Used the example code and it works fine with the Arduino IDE but as soon as I take the exact code the PlatformIO my esp32 crashes
and gives an error on repeat.

Steps To Reproduce Problem

use the library in platformIO with the example given.

Hardware & Software

Using Esp32 Development kit, latest version of encoder library
Here is my Platformio.ini:
[env]
build_src_filter = +<*> -<.git/> -<.svn/> - - - -

[env:dispenser]
platform = espressif32
board = esp32doit-devkit-v1
framework = arduino
lib_deps =
miguelbalboa/MFRC522@^1.4.10
marcoschwartz/LiquidCrystal_I2C@^1.1.4
soligen2010/ClickEncoder@0.0.0-alpha+sha.9337a0c46c
paulstoffregen/Encoder@^1.4.2
upload_port = COM8
monitor_port = COM8
monitor_speed = 115200
build_src_filter = ${env.src_filter} -<mainRegister.cpp>

Comment on reddit suggests this is due to attaching to the interrupts in the constructor and it might work if it were done in setup() instead. Unfortunately that doesn't seem to be possible with the current code.

[ZephyrCloudNine]

Attaching the interrupt in void setup() is the way to go instead of at the constructor. Here's how i went about it given that the Encoder library requires you to pass the interrupt pins in the constructor itself. Heres an example code which worked for me (ESP32S dev module)

/* Encoder Library - Basic Example

• http://www.pjrc.com/teensy/td_libs_Encoder.html
• This example code is in the public domain.
  */

#include <Encoder.h>

// Change these two numbers to the pins connected to your encoder.
// Best Performance: both pins have interrupt capability
// Good Performance: only the first pin has interrupt capability
// Low Performance: neither pin has interrupt capability
Encoder *myEnc;
// avoid using pins with LEDs attached

void setup() {

myEnc = new Encoder(18,19);
Serial.begin(115200);
Serial.println("Basic Encoder Test:");
}

long oldPosition = -999;

void loop() {
long newPosition = myEnc->read();
if (newPosition != oldPosition) {
oldPosition = newPosition;
Serial.println(newPosition);
}
}
