nRF52 DK with SDK14 Blinky Example (without BLE) Compile Error by Using IAR 8.20.1

[littlemingsmw]

Hi,

I am using IAR embedded workbench IDE - ARM 8.20.1 (full version) to compile the SDK 14.0 blinky_pca10040_s132 -nrf52832_xxaa example. However, I got some errors which is

1. Fatal Error[Pe1696]: cannot open source file "nrf_log_ctrl_internal.h"

2. Error while running C/C++ Compiler app_util_platform.c
   app_error.c
   nrf_assert.c
   main.c
   nrf_sdh_soc.c

3. Fatal Error[Pe1696]: cannot open source file "nrf_section_iter.h"

4. Error while running C/C++ Compiler nrf_sdh.c

5. Fatal Error[Pe1696]: cannot open source file "nrf_section_iter.h"

6. Error while running C/C++ Compiler system_nrf52.c
   nrf_strerror.c
   nrf_section_iter.c

Total number of errors: 3 (Display on IAR message box)

I already did the below step before I built the project,

1. Open workspace -> "blinky.eww"
2. Set active -> blinky_pca10040_s132_nf52832_xxaa
3. Select project -> options -> Gerneral Options -> Target -> Device -> "NordicSemi nRF52832_xxAA"
4. Select project -> options -> Debugger -> Drive -> "J-link/J-Trace"
5. Select project -> options -> Debugger -> J-link/J-Trace -> Setup -> JTAG/SWD speed -> Fixed 4000kHz
6. Use nrfjprog erase and reset the chip

I had no idea that why I will got these errors. Please help.

Thank you.

Regards,

I did not change the folder structure of the SDK 14.0. And I checked the below setting in IAR Embedded Workbench IDE, project > Option > C/C++ Compiler > Preprocessor > Additional include directories, I found that all of the needed libraries were included. For example, "nrf_sdh.c" was compiled fail as the source file "nrf_section_iter.h" could not open. This heading file was under the folder "\nRF5_SDK_14.0.0_3bcc1f7\components\libraries\experimental_log\src", but the directories "$PROJ_DIR$............\components\libraries\experimental_log\src" already existed in the C/C++ Compiler > Preprocessor > Additional include directories.

It is did not make sense that the IAR still showed errors if the additional include directories settled. So, I am quite confuse about that.

Thank you.
