nAN-29 - no project file for ble_app_hrs

[JohnC]

I'm following nAN-29 and when I go to import the Eclipse project file for ble_app_hrs I get a message "No projects are found to import". I've pretty much followed nAN-29 to the letter and tried multiple times at this step. Is the Eclipse project file no longer bundled with this example?

Thanks, John

Project files for Eclipse are currently available in the hrs example for board nrf6310. It's easily ported to PCA10001 by changing the board definition in the pre-processor symbols and remove LED_7 usage in main.c.

You can also check out the blog post "Development with Eclipse and GCC" for more details on how to import other SDK examples.

You can also get full Eclipse based project (not makefile) for Blinky and Blinky over BLE with custom service from this blog page embeddedsoftdev.blogspot.ca/.../h.html. The blog site also contains Eclipse page for setting up Eclipse working environment for ARM development.

Maybe I'm missing something here but all I see are 3 Makefiles for ble_app_hrs under the nrf6310 directory. And when I follow the instructions as per nAN-29 I get the same result as above.

I will say, however, that the blog post worked for me. I got hung up on a couple things on the last step: where the supported device name comes from (I got it from Segger's website) and jlink path (after trial and error I set a path to JLinkGDBServerCL.exe and it seems to work OK). Perhaps this blog post can be merged with nAN-29 (or at least a reference made to it from nAN-29) as that would have saved me a ton of time.

Thanks for the feedback. I’ll take your suggestions into considerations and see if we can do some official changes to the app note, but I cannot promise anything yet.
