Hi,

Thank you for your reply. I understand.

Hi,

Any other format that what is described in https://docs.nordicsemi.com/bundle/ncs-2.6.1/page/zephyr/build/version/index.html seems to not be possible due to how the header is defined. You can always modify it you're not able to get it to show "1.0.2" with these options.

Apologies for not being able to help you further than this.

Kind regards,
Andreas

Hi,

I want to get result like this:

The "V1.0.2" will be displayed on "Firmware Revision String".

No matter use "tmodify the config during runtime" or "modify it as a string before building" , only I need is to fulfill this function.

VERSION_MAJOR = 1
VERSION_MINOR = 0
PATCHLEVEL = 2
VERSION_TWEAK = 0
EXTRAVERSION =

Hi,

Modifying the string during runtime is not supported since it is set during build as I suggested previously, but I'm not sure I understand what you're aiming to do now.

In the image you posted, you clearly see that you've included settings.h and are calling the function that is unreferenced. Where did you get this part from? Is it from another sample, is it present in the NCS v2.6.1 sample that you're using or elsewhere?

Kind regards,
Andreas

Hi,

I have configured "CONFIG_SETTINGS_RUNTIME" and executed

"settings_runtime_set", but Firmware Revision String has not changed.

Can you give me some suggestions?

Hi,

My project does not contain this file(C:\ncs\v2.6.1\zephyr\subsys\settings\src\settings_runtime.c)

How do I modify "CMakeLists.txt" to include this file?

From the picture I can't state if you've declared it or not unfortunately. The only thing I can see is that settings_runtime_set() is a function you've written, (or rather, I assume so). If this is the case, the error is that Sunion::AppTask::StartApp() function does not know that this function exists before you're calling settings_runtime_set().

You need to declare it before you call it. See https://www.tutorialspoint.com/cplusplus/cpp_functions.htm

Hi,

I first tried to use "modify it as a string before building" and found that the displayed results were not as expected.

So I go with the "to modify the config during runtime" approach, which I think has been declared.
Can you tell me where I made a mistake?

Hi again,

Thank you for clarifying! This configuration is set during build time. Where did you see that you can change this during run time?

Regarding the build error you're showing it seems to me that the function is not declared before you call it.

Kind regards,

Hi,

This link is the same as my need.

Because VERSION_MAJOR ang VERSION_MINOR are numerical , setting it directly in Kconfig will get the result of v"space"."space"

So now I plan to use ""to modify the config during runtime"" to change the Firmware Revision String.

But I can't use this API.

Could you clarify if you mean "to modify the config during runtime" or to "modify it as a string before building"?

[quote user="SunHuang"]Can you tell me what is the API to modify BLE GATT?[/quote]

I'm not sure what you're referring to, but here is the API for bt_gatt: https://docs.nordicsemi.com/bundle/nrf-apis-latest/page/group_bt_gattp.html

Hmm, By omitting PATCHLEVEL, VERSION_TWEAK, and EXTRAVERSION fields, you should observe the version format "major_version.minor_version".

But note that some uses of version number (for instance MCUboot or OTA updates), the version might be repsented internally as "1.23.0+0" due to how MCUboot expects the versioning to be formatted. However, for display purposes and in many API calls, it will appear as "1.23".

Kind regards,
Andreas

Hi,

It's format is not what I expected because its default format is "0.0.0+0".

The format I want is "0.00"(VERSION_MAJOR.VERSION_MINOR).

So I hope to modify the BLE information through API.

Hi,

Try to set

VERSION_MAJOR = 1

VERSION_MINOR =23
