Modify DEVICE_NAME

[Yoojin.Jang]

Hello.

I use nrf51822 chip.

I want modify Device_name as below.

1EA product "CoCoNut - 001"

other 1EA product "CoCoNut - 002"

other 1EA product "CoCoNut - 003" .....

So, 001,002,003 numbering is storage from flash memory.

I want modify only one source code.

but, I don't know add device_name.

How can I modify source code?

please confirm it.

You could use a script to modify your binary for each device you upload to.

e.g. In your code define a constant array with the text "CoCoNut - 001"

In the binary there were be a the text "CoCoNut - 001", so you just need to get your script to change this to "CoCoNut - 002" etc before you upload

You'd need to keep track of the index number somehow, e.g. some sort of database (or even just a text file)

It would depend on what operating system you were using and probably what programmer e.g. JLink you are using?

e.g. on Linux you could use perl to search and replace the string in the binary
