Dear friends,
Tried to interface LOLIN32 with SD card but got compilation error:
B4X:
D:\DEVELO~1\WEMOSP~1\WEMOS_SD\B4R_SD~1\Objects\bin\sketch\rSD.cpp:11:7: note:   initializing argument 2 of 'bool B4R::B4RSD::open(B4R::B4RString*, Int)'
  bool B4RSD::open (B4RString* FileName, Int mode) {
       ^

rSD.cpp:25: error: invalid conversion from 'const char*' to 'Int {aka short int}' [-fpermissive]
   return open(FileName, FILE_WRITE);
                                   ^

Multiple libraries were found for "SD.h"
Used: C:\Users\RAJESH\Documents\Arduino\hardware\espressif\esp32\libraries\SD
Not used: C:\Program Files (x86)\Arduino\libraries\SD
exit status 1
It seems there is some incompatibility with ESP32 SD library! (Probably needs a new/modified wrapper!)
This Arduino sketch works fine:

I was able to run an SD card on ESP32 with Arduino so it might works. Note that you have to connect your SD card on those pins.

Dear Erel,
The unfortunately the new rSD library does not work. It compiles ok but is unable to create a file on the SD card.
Here is my code:
B4X:
Sub Process_Globals
   Public Serial1 As Serial
   Private timer1 As Timer
   Private sd As SD
   Private analogPin As Pin                         
   
End Sub

Private Sub AppStart
    Serial1.Initialize(115200)
    Log("AppStart")
    sd.Initialize(5)
    analogPin.Initialize(36, analogPin.MODE_OUTPUT)
    timer1.Initialize("timer1_Tick", 100)
    timer1.Enabled = True
  
End Sub

Sub Timer1_Tick
    Dim a As String
    Dim bc As ByteConverter
    Dim k(1) As Byte
    Dim rawvoltage As UInt = analogPin.AnalogRead

 
      Log( rawvoltage)
    Log("File opened :",sd.OpenReadWrite("NEW.TXT"))

    Dim b As String
    a=rawvoltage
    b=JoinStrings(Array As String(a,CRLF))
    k=bc.stringToBytes(b)
    sd.Position=sd.CurrentFile.Size
    sd.Stream.WriteBytes(k,0,k.length)
    sd.Close

End Sub

Dear Erel,
The code does not return anything.
The same library works great for ESP8266 and returns filelist.

Hi...as per my knowledge in IDF sdmmc driver, clock frequencies used for default speed and high speed mode are 20 and 40 MHz, respectively, because the peripheral clock divider allows only 160MHz/n frequencies, and the closest ones (26.7MHz and 53.3MHz) would be out of spec.

Has this problem been fixed? I too am able to write to the SD card using the Arduino IDE, but not using B4R. SD.Initialize returns true, but the other functions return false.

This is from the examples in Arduino and runs with no errors

This is the test B4R code.

    Private sd As SD
  
End Sub

Private Sub AppStart
    Serial1.Initialize(115200)
    Log("AppStart")
    Log("Initialize: ", sd.Initialize(5)) '4 is the CS pin when using the ethernet shield

    sd.Stream.WriteBytes("abcde", 0, 5)
    sd.Close
    Log("Open: ", sd.OpenRead("log.txt"))
