Try building
Expected behavior
code compiles with microros library

Start by reproducing the build from examples/ESP32 or a new PlatformIO project using the platformio.ini settings and the referenced commits. Inspect the available screenshot and build output to identify the missing file; the issue is resolved when the micro-ROS library builds successfully.
