    Is it possible to change the node ID at run time in Setup???

    ie: MY_NODE_ID

    The way it looks now, it needs to be set prior to Setup or Loop being invoked using a:

    #define MY_NODE_ID 10

    I'm using an MQTT GW and would like each device to get its ID from a jumper on the board...

    Thanks

      Yes, it should be possible with something like this...

      int8_t myNodeId;
      
      #define MY_NODE_ID myNodeId
      
      void before () { 
            // read pins and set myNodeId    
      }

        Good idea, but it did not worked...

        The node was at 10, so I set the myNodeId = 12 in before() function, node continued to use ID of 10, most likely from Flash.... before() might be running prior to initialization of all variables...

            I have this working now, it was a setup issue on my part...

            #define MY_NODE_ID myNodeId
            
            
            int8_t myNodeId;
            
            #define MY_NODE_ID myNodeId
            
            void before () { 
                // read I/O pins and set myNodeId
                myNodeId = 32;
                Serial.println( myNodeId );
            }
