Need Help With My Project

I am trying to connect ESP8266 with UNO, sketch is erroring out with following error message

Arduino: 1.6.7 (Windows Vista), Board: “Arduino/Genuino Uno”

sketch\ESP8266_Shield_SoftSer.ino.cpp.o: In function `__static_initialization_and_destruction_0’:

C:\Users\Priya\AppData\Local\Temp\arduino_f91537841f8e3a6f882fcbbbea7baf92/ESP8266_Shield_SoftSer.ino:42: undefined reference to `ESP8266::ESP8266(SoftwareSerial&)’

collect2.exe: error: ld returned 1 exit status

I couldn’t locate this file over web, can you help me in getting library?

Arduino is now at 1.6.10 and I would recommend upgrading to at least 1.6.9.

Ensure you have the latest Blynk libraries and that you are using their latest example for ESP8266 as a WiFi shield.

If you search the forum you will see that your problem is the most common problem raised by Blynkers and all the possible solutions.

My recommendation is, if at all possible, forget the Arduino and just work with ESP’s. Something like the NodeMCU V3 or WeMos D1 Mini (as little as $3 these days).
