Compiler not finding an included file

[J Booth]

Hello, I am working through the tutorials to understand how to better use the SDK. I am currently on the Advertising tutorial and have gotten a strange error that doesn't make sense. I am working with the nRF52832 in Keil uVision 5 with SDK 12.2.0 and S132 (because that is what the tutorial uses).

Here is the error:

..\components\ble\ble_advertising\ble_advertising.c(590): error:  #20: identifier "NRF_EVT_FLASH_OPERATION_SUCCESS" is undefined
      case NRF_EVT_FLASH_OPERATION_SUCCESS:

The "NRF_EVT_FLASH_OPERATION_SUCCESS" is part of the enum NRF_SOC_EVTS. This enum is then defined in the "nrf_soc.h" header file. The C file that is generating the error is the "ble_advertising.c" file which includes the "nrf_soc.h" file.

Because the "ble_advertising.c" file includes the header file where the NRF_EVT_FLASH_OPERATION_SUCCESS is defined, I do not understand why there is an error. I have included the "nrf_soc.h" file in the include path.

What is going on here?

Windows has a limitation to its path length. Try moving the SDK folder to a shorter path, for instance C:\SDK_NAME.

Interesting. I have not run into this problem before with any of the example projects. Why is it a problem here and not with the example projects when the paths are the same length?

It might be the issue. It is the path to the file being included that is the problem.

Thanks, that seemed to do the trick.
