No it builds within the SDK without issue.

The post was more of I'm also seeing the issue here on a newer SDK, rather that needing help resolving the issue.
I resolved it by coping the common folder to the above directory (due to common being set ${CMAKE_CURRENT_LIST_DIR}/../../../common ).

I do seem to have an issue with the sample itself but I'll create a new post for that.

Are you getting the same issue when simply building it in the SDK itself?

If not, are you moving the common folder and changing the Cmakelists file to compensate?

I've just started experimenting with NCS and came across this same issue, using 2.4.1, with the timer example, however I don't get the same issue with the nrf LED matrix sample.

Hello again. I'm glad you've found something that at least works.

I am not getting your git errors, but I am running into what you describe in 6) when trying an nrfx sample. Failing to move the common-folder is apparently recent bug that we are currently working on, though it might be fixed already as I am at least seeing the common-folder copied over when testing it myself. Though I do get the same error that you describe in 6) afterwards. Though changing:

C:/Nordic/Development/advanced_non_blocking_internal_timer/../../common/common.cmake

to:

C:/Nordic/Development/advanced_non_blocking_internal_timer/common/common.cmake

Makes it build for me.

Are you seeing any similar issues with other samples besides the nrfx ones? Does that count for the git problem as well? I am not seeing that on my side.

Elfving

Hi Elfving,

What seems to be happening when I try and create a new application based on an existing example is:

it will copy all the relevant files to the specified location on my local drive
it will then come up with those errors about failing a git commit because I've not provided my identity in the relevant location

The files are actually there, its just Visual Studio Code wants to try and do some sort of git commit I'm not wanting it to.

If I go and then open an existing application and navigate to where the files were placed, I seem to be able to build and run the example.

Not ideal, but its a procedure that seems to work!

Wasn't like this before, so not sure what's changed.

Best regards,

Mike

Hello Mike

Could you try manually copying over the common folder in v2.2.0\modules\hal\nordic\nrfx\samples\src\nrfx_saadc? I've seen others having similar issues where the common folder isn't being copied over by NCS for some reason.

Regards,

Elfving
