building error multilink_central for PCA10031

[dumbos]

Hi,

I got the same error as the guy in this question: https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/26041/compiling-error-for-nrf51-development-dongle 

I use another example, the ble_app_multilink_central example. This example do not contain the same functions and can not be solved the same way as for the ble_app_hrs example. So I wounder if you can help me with figuring out what I should to to solve this error?

Thanks

All I did was go to Options for Target in Keil -> C/C++ tab -> change BOARD_PCA10028 to BOARD_PCA10031 (since you are using the nrf51 dongle) & then remove the bsp_btn_ble.c file in the Board Support folder & then everything compiled correctly. It's compiling without any errors now, but make sure to test it out to see if everything works like it should.

Great! It worked at first but then i tried to change some code, mainly add "m_target_periph_name_1[]" as one more periph name that i want. When I got the error I commented all the changes out and I still got the same error. 

I inserted a picture of the error below.

In the error list it says "fatal error: 'sdk_config.h' file not found. If I open "Manage Project Items" I find the file there. Added a picture of that ass well below.

I followed your procedure & got the same error. I was surprised that the example compiled with so few changes, so I guess this is expected that button errors appear. To solve these compile issues, I did the following:

It seems that once I removed the bsp_btn_ble.c file, Keil could not find bsp.c & bsp_nfc.c anymore for some reason. Not sure why this is happening, but do not think this is such a big issue. 

I also commented out the button_event_handler() function in main.c, as well as the led_status_send_to_all() & the buttons_init() functions. I am assuming you are not going to use the button on the side of the dongle. I also commented out the #define LEDBUTTON_BUTTON_PIN      BSP_BUTTON_0 in main.c. 

I also commented out the buttons_init() call in main(). After that, everything compiled (even when I added the m_target_periph_name_1[]. Again, I would test this to make sure everything works.

Let me know if you got it working!

Great! Now it works, also when I add the new code that I wanted! 

Thank you :)

Cool! Good luck with further development! :) Let me know if there's anthing else I can help with.
