Configuring SES for application

[DEGHI]

I'm trying to develop a beacon application where I dore to read the battery level.

I installed the Segger SES development environment.

If I use the example \examples\ble_peripheral\ble_app_beacon everything works correctly.

If I use the example \examples\peripheral\saadc everything works correctly.

But if I try to combine the two examples, I have a lot of problems. 

I edited the sdk_config.h file to include the necessary modules but I still have problems compiling; they do not sell found the files to be included. I tried to see the options of the project but I could not figure out if it is possible to port the configurations ... any suggestions?

is it possible to configure a module with all the related environment variables? I also installed CMSIS configuration but I can not find an effective solution, I would not do it all manually ...

Thank you very much

Hi DEGHI,

sdk_config.h is a configuration file for the SDK drivers and libraries. It cannot be used to add modules/services.

Unfortunately you need to add these two examples manually. When you say you have a lot of problem, you may post those here and most probably you will get some help to overcome them.

Hi Aryan, many thanks for the email.

I had tried to add the code of the saad example to that of the beacon but I had problems in the linking phase. Now I tried to do the opposite, starting from the saadc sample code (\examples\peripheral\saadc) I would like to add the code of the BLE advertising part (\examples\ble_peripheral\ble_app_beacon).but the compiler does not find some include files.

Please, could you confirm to me that it is enough to update the sdk_config.h configuration file by inserting the necessary modules and enabling them (maybe I try again to verify by pointing out the actions done) or I have to do some other action?

[DEGHI]

For example, now I took the example \examples\ble_peripheral\ble_app_beacon if I compile it and install it all ok.

I have noticed that the other example related to SAADC foresees the configuration of some modules not present in this example. If I enable in the sdk_config.h file (I have not made any changes to the code) the Power Enabled module:

// <e> POWER_ENABLED - nrf_drv_power - POWER peripheral driver
// ================================================ ==========
#ifndef POWER_ENABLED
#define POWER_ENABLED 1
#endif

The compilation ends correctly but in the link phase I have the following error:

OK, This is for SDK12.3 I guess, You should include nrf_driver_power.c in your project and enable POWER_ENABLED in your sdk_config.h file.

Just to make sure that I was clear earlier.

you need to explicitly add the modules to your project. easy way is to add every available module in SDK to your project and then enable/disable them using sdk_config.h file.

HI many thanks for the mail. I had enabled the module in the sdk_config.h file but I had not included the various nrf_xxx.c files in the SES, including files, everything works correctly.

Thank you very much.
