I'd patched the sdk header using the "attribute((unused))" which was described in that linked answer and it works (wanna let the gcc warning level as sensible as possible).

Hi there,

I observed the same behaviour under windows. The I chose the a solution proposed by Ole and changed the makefile so warnings don't get treated like errors. Works perfectly now.

Please take a look at this question.

Officially GCC and OS X isn't supported for the SDK, but it is perfectly possible to get things working if you can live with doing some modifications. I use my own Makefiles (nrf51-pure-gcc-setup) on Linux, and don't have any major problems.

In order to flash, I have installed J-Link on my debian. I download it from SEGGER: www.segger.com/jlink-software.html

For the statement, I do not know ...

Thanks for that hint. I'd seen that nrf51-pure-gcc-setup and I'll check that out soon. Further, the Sdk Makefiles won't support JLinkExe for writing to Flash under Linux, but nrf51-pure-gcc-setup seems to do this job (including flashing the SoftDevice).

Is there a statement from Nordic, if the Sdk officially supports Linux (and Mac?) as host system for development?

Hello,

I am not a specialist at all !!!! But I succeed to compile some examples on Linux with the help (thanks to Ole Morten) of a private GCC setup here: github.com/.../nrf51-pure-gcc-setup

See the thread: "Build problem with pca10001 ble_app_proximity project". Good luck !
