Anet A8 + Reprap discount smart controller on marlin 2.0

Hi guys, ordered a replacement for my lcd, but got REPRAP_DISCOUNT_SMART_CONTROLLER instead, I wonder if I can use it.
So, what I did:

#define SDSUPPORT
#define REPRAP_DISCOUNT_SMART_CONTROLLER
//#define ZONESTAR_LCD

But I get an error while compiling a marlin 2.0 firmware

sketch/src/lcd/HD44780/ultralcd_HD44780.cpp:99:17: error: 'LCD_PINS_RS' was not declared in this scope

Error compiling for board Anet V1.0.

I have no idea what to do with this, would appreciate any help.

This is what I've found in pins_ANET_10.h

/**
 * LCD / Controller
 *
 * Only the following displays are supported:
 *  ZONESTAR_LCD
 *  ANET_FULL_GRAPHICS_LCD
 *  REPRAP_DISCOUNT_FULL_GRAPHIC_SMART_CONTROLLER
 */

So it's not supported, is there no way to make it work?

The pins.h file that describes the board Anet V1.0 is not setup for a REPRAP_DISCOUNT_SMART_CONTROLLER lcd.

In fact the file pins_ANET_10.h says (which you already spotted)

* Only the following displays are supported:
 *  ZONESTAR_LCD
 *  ANET_FULL_GRAPHICS_LCD
 *  REPRAP_DISCOUNT_FULL_GRAPHIC_SMART_CONTROLLER

There are insufficient pins connected to those ports on this controller to use a REPRAP_DISCOUNT_SMART_CONTROLLER,

Sadly this is just not possible without major board modifications,

Thank you for confirming, I guess I'll just solder the screen out and will put it on lcd.
