error: L6236E: No section matches selector - no section to be FIRST/LAST.

Hello,

I am working with nRF52832 and using Keil uVISION 5.

While building the exapmple from nRF SDK v15, I am getting this error :

error: L6236E: No section matches selector - no section to be FIRST/LAST.

I also tried the following suggested on ARM forum, but the error remains same.

• I opened the project in keil.
• In target->linker, I unchecked Use memory layout from target dialogue.
• Entered 0x00026000 in R/O base and 0x200018A8 in R/W base address from .sct file in \..\components\softdevice\s132\hex\s132_nrf52_6.0.0_softdevice.sct

Any help?

Hi,

Most examples relies heavily on the board support package (BSP) which is an SDK library that relies on a certain number of buttons, leds, etc. to be configured. In order to build the examples for a custom board you should:

• set the preprocessor define BOARD_CUSTOM
• remove the preprocessor define BOARD_PCA10040
• in <sdk folder>/components/boards, make a copy of pca10040.h that you name custom_board.h, and change the LED and button defines to reflect your custom board.

That way you should be able to run most SDK examples directly (unless they need more leds or buttons than are available on your board).

Alternatively you must manually go through every place where the board support package or the defines within the board specific board file are used, and change that. Unfortunately I do not have a full overview of all the places that would be, but fixing one error message at a time would be a valid approach.

Thank you Terje.

I will try to modify above things.
