Yes, it does.

Alright, does Segger embedded studio also have the function as Keil?

Yes you can use Eclipse, but I would not recommend now that we have Segger embedded studio. Is there a particular reason for wanting to use Eclipse instead of Segger? It is not trivial to set up.

Hi, if just some normal editings of makefile is fine to me, can I still use eclipse to do my project?

Hi,

I would recommend you to use Segger embedded studio. The Eclipse setup described in the blog post still requires editing of the makefile when you need to add a new source files, etc. Starting from SDK version 14 we included Segger embedded Studio projects for all examples.

Unfortunately, the smart remote examples do not include SES support yet. What you can do is to copy one of the the examples from SDK 14, \ble_app_hrs\pca10040e\s112\ses for instance, open the *emproject file in a text editor, then edit it according to to the Makefile (eg., add/remove necessary source files).

Hi, Vidar Berg

I have already included my own custom board header with my own CONFIG_BOARD_xxx defines, which can be compiled and runs on the board, but still in the same Target PCA20031-SR3_nRF52810_Product_Example.

The problem is If I change the TARGETS to my own custom name(ABCDEFG) in makefile, gcc will just show my CONFIG_BOARD_xxx is not defined even I have.

BTW,

I want to use Eclipse to compile costume target instead of manually modify the makefile, because I find your blog of

"development with GCC and Eclipse".

My environment:

GNU MCU Eclipse IDE for C/C++ Developers: 4.4.2

GNU Tools ARM Embedded: 4.9 2015q3

GNU MCU Eclipse build tool 2.11

nRF5x SDK v14.2.0-SR3

And I encounter some problems by follow your tutorial:

1.my Eclipse IDE's "C/C++->Build->Global Tools path" is missing.

I check around and find another locations have similar things in Preferences "MCU->Global Build Tools Path/Global ARM Toolchains Path"

Can I use this MCU location instead of C/C++ location?

2.RUN/Debug also cant find SGGER J-Link but does in MUC->Workspace SGGER Jlink Path.

3. My nRF SDK14.2 doesn't have .project and .cproject file,Can I use the file in your attachments(SDK12)?

Thanks

Hi,

The CONFIG_BOARD_xxx symbol defines which board header file to include in the project, see sr3_config.h line 89. You can edit this file if you want to use a custom board header.
