Bugs in SES 3.12 and consistently working guideline for SES+SDK+nRF52DK

Having spent numerous hours/days on trying to get the SDK12 examples running on my nRF52DK board with MacOS SES3.12, I in result wrote a basic guideline that in the end makes every example in the SDK work for me consistently.

I however would like someone to confirm if I did or did not stumbled across a bug in SES 3.12 and which might be the root cause of why many people out there struggle to get their examples going. First bug is a disconnect between values for Section Placement (mucho important) in the project-edit options... view and the properties window (step 17-18 of attached guideline).

Second bug is once you close the properties window, can't seem to get it back easily - if someone can help me with that one, highly appreciated, I closed the properties window writing this document but lost it since).

EDIT : below is the updated guideline document based on feedback received and updated setup_files. Finally, I have all the SDK examples to build consistently (finally) and no more missing windows :)

  • Hi,

    Thank you for your input. I hope that you saw this blog post before writing the guidelines.


    • The first bug/issue you mentioned seems to be related to what configuration you have selected. By default, this is “Common”, but you have to select the nrf52832_xxaa configuration: image description

    • I’m also seeing this "Properties Window bug" using SES V3.10 on Windows. It should have been possible to activate the properties window in View-> Properties Windows, but it looks like it's not there! The workaround here is to use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+Alt+Enter(numpad enter) to activate the window again.
  • Thanks Sigurd. Thanks for clarifying that dropdown, now it makes sense and I updated the guideline accordingly.

    On the lost properties windows, in case no numpad keyboard (like me on Mac) it can be retrieved by doing FILE > CLOSE SOLUTION and then re-open the project.
