Won't Compile (using ESP32 Feather with RFM69HCW wing)

[chuckberrypi]

After striking out getting the LowPowerLabs RFM69 library working on this hardware setup, I thought I'd switch tacks and try RadioHead. I can't even get it to compile. Here's the error messages I get when I try to compile:

~/Documents/Arduino/libraries/RadioHead-master/RH_ASK.cpp:528:23: error: too many arguments to function 'hw_timer_t* timerBegin(uint32_t)'

Any suggestions for getting this off the ground? Do I need to change the library code? Pretty frustrating that I can't get the wing to work with the ESP32 feather.

Hi. This happened because ESPRESSIF changed the Timer API in version 3.0.0.
More about the situation here: espressif/arduino-esp32#8796 and https://docs.espressif.com/projects/arduino-esp32/en/latest/migration_guides/2.x_to_3.0.html
As a temporary solution, I changed lines 563-566 in RH_ASK.cpp. I cannot claim that this is absolutely true, but I have not found any errors in my projects. Tested on RH_RF95 and ESP32-C6.
Old code:

#elif (RH_PLATFORM == RH_PLATFORM_ESP32)
     void RH_INTERRUPT_ATTR esp32_timer_interrupt_handler(); // Forward declaration
     timer = timerBegin(0, 80, true); // Alarm value will be in in us
     timerAttachInterrupt(timer, &esp32_timer_interrupt_handler, true);
     timerAlarmWrite(timer, 1000000 / _speed / 8, true);
     timerAlarmEnable(timer);
 #endif

New code:

#elif (RH_PLATFORM == RH_PLATFORM_ESP32)
    void RH_INTERRUPT_ATTR esp32_timer_interrupt_handler(); // Forward declaration
    timer = timerBegin(1000000);
    timerAttachInterrupt(timer, &esp32_timer_interrupt_handler);
    timerAlarm(timer, 1000000 / _speed / 8, true, 0);
#endif

You can also go back to the previous version 2.0.11 esp32 as a solution.
