Esp8266_deauther: DynamicJsonBuffer

[cadencetheking]

While compiling I got an error saying that 'DynamicJsonBuffer' has not been declared. I followed the wiki step by step and have tried to look up on a fix to it and haven't come up with anything. Thank you for the support

Could not find boards.txt in C:\Users\caden\AppData\Local\Arduino15\packages\esp8266\hardware\esp8266\2.0.0. Is it pre-1.5?

I had this error when using the wrong ArduinoJson library. It's important to use the one sources from esp8266_deauther rather than the latest from Arduino. In my case, I had both and there was a warning it was using the newer Arduino library. Once I removed it, it defaulted to the one from esp8266_deauther and the compile succeeded.

other workaround: rollback to a non-beta version of ArduinoJSON library, this is a known bug
