It is required to define a mandatory dependency on lwip, so we introduced esp_netif_stack component and made it require lwip, instead of directly depending on lwip. This enables building w-out lwip and support other TCP/IP stacks.

Networking component dependency
This test application checks the list of components included into the build when:
esp_netifcomponent is added to the build.- with default network stack, i.e.
lwip - without lwip using empty
esp-netif-stackcomponent
- with default network stack, i.e.
lwipcomponent is added to the build.
The test checks that driver components are not included in the build
Using this test app
- Remove the build artifacts
idf.py fullclean - Choose the component to test (either
esp_netiforlwip) - Build the project
idf.py build
Troubleshooting
If you get a build error in this example, please check there's no dependency from the tested component (either esp_netif or lwip) to any defined component listed in ${forbidden_deps}, that must not be included.
Please open the project CMakeLists.txt to view the expected dependencies and driver's components that must not be included in the list:
- CMake variable
forbidden_depscontains list of components that must not be included. - CMake variable
expected_build_componentscontains list expected dependencies
Note that this project creates component_deps.dot, a simplified dependency graph that could be used to display and troubleshoot component dependencies.
Note that this test is executed for one target only in CI (ESP32), but shall work correctly for all IDF supported targets.
