ble_app_uart not compiling

[MaxRPEng]

Hello,

i just wanted to compile a example project out of the box: ble_app_uart.

S132. SES. PCA10040

Surprice, did not work, why do you provide not working examples?!

I found many post about this a few years ago. But it seems that this bug was never handeled.

Any soultion to get that example build?

Best regards

Max

Hello Max,

SES v8.20 is not compatible with the nRF5 SDK, unfortunately. I recommend downgrading to version 5.42a or any other 5.xx version. SES v5.42a was the version used during the testing and verification of nRF SDK v17.1.0. In SES v6.20, the legacy runtime library used in our examples was removed, and is the main reason why our examples will not build out-of-the-box with SES v6.20 and later.

From the SDK release notes:

The following toolchains/devices have been used for testing and verification:
 
 - ARM: MDK-ARM version 5.25   
 - GCC: GCC ARM Embedded 9.2020-q2.major
 - IAR: IAR Workbench 7.80.4
 - SES: SES 5.42a
