Thanks Håkon!

I've used a timer to check the release event and now it's working fine. I think I'll keep using BSP, because I'm using the startup_event functionality and it's working as expected.

Hi!

Great to hear that the timer issue is solved.

Regarding your GPIO-issue: If you are using BSP, I'd recommend moving over to using app_button instead. BSP cannot give multiple events on one button (like _PUSH and _RELEASE), unfortunately.

The example ble_app_multilink_central in SDK v12 uses the app_button, and you can have a look at that as a starting point.

Example of init function:

static void buttons_init(void)
{
   //The array must be static because a pointer to it will be saved in the button handler module.
    static app_button_cfg_t buttons[] =
    {
        {BUTTON_1, false, BUTTON_PULL, button_event_handler},
        {BUTTON_2, false, BUTTON_PULL, button_event_handler},
        /* Add entries here if required */
    };

    uint32_t err_code = app_button_init(buttons, sizeof(buttons) / sizeof(buttons[0]),
                                        BUTTON_DETECTION_DELAY);
    APP_ERROR_CHECK(err_code);
}

Here's how to make the button handler for checking both push and release:

static void button_event_handler(uint8_t pin_no, uint8_t button_action)
{
    switch (pin_no)
    {
        case LEDBUTTON_BUTTON_PIN:
            if (button_action == APP_BUTTON_PUSH)
            {
            }
            else if (button_action == APP_BUTTON_RELASE)
            {
            }
            break;

        default:
            APP_ERROR_HANDLER(pin_no);
            break;
    }
}

Best regards,

Håkon

Ok, I've solved this following the timers usage from another example (ble_peripheral/hrs) and now it works. I had not used the macro APP_TIMER_DEF, and I had enabled the timers in sdk_config. Now the timers are working, but I can not get the button release event in the BSP.
