Error: L6218E

[KCY]

I am running into these 3 errors while compiling my program. I tried fixing sdk_config.h.

.\_build\nrf52832_xxaa.axf: Error: L6218E: Undefined symbol app_uart_init (referred from main.o).
.\_build\nrf52832_xxaa.axf: Error: L6218E: Undefined symbol nrfx_twim_enable (referred from main.o).
.\_build\nrf52832_xxaa.axf: Error: L6218E: Undefined symbol nrfx_twim_rx (referred from main.o).

Am I still missing anything else in sdk_config.h to make it work?

Have you added the necessary files to your project?

Thank you for your response.

I have added app_uart.c in the project, but it seems like "NRF_MODULE_ENABLED" is not enabled. Do you have any idea how to enable this?

For the nrfx_twim_enable problem, I tried solving this by changing the sdk_config, but it didn't work.

Anything else I can try, or am I missing something else? Thank you!

Hi,

I was not talking about the NRFX_TWI* defines, but the set of legacy layer TWI* defines. Have a look at the sdk_config.h file from a twi example in the SDK (you find them under <sdk folder>/examples/peripheral). There are many defines, such as TWI_ENABLED, TWI0_ENABLED, TWIM_ENABLED, TWIM0_ENABLED, TWIM1_ENABLED, etc. You may need to set both the NRFX_TWI* define and the corresponding TWI* define in sdk_config.h, in order not to get any trouble. If those defines are missing from your sdk_config.h file then you need to copy them (for instance from the sdk_config.h file of one of the twi examples.)

Please also have a look at the comment from awneil regarding .c source files. Are they all added to the project?

Regards,
Terje

I have added these defines but it did not help with the "Undefined symbol nrfx_twim_enable" error.

I have also added the .c files but did not solve the "app_uart_init" error.

Thank you!

Hi,

Sorry for the delay.

In your screenshot I do not see the file nrfx_twim.c in the project. That file is where nrfx_twim_enable is implemented.

What error messages (if any) do you get now? (After adding nrfx_twim.c if missing.)

Regards,
Terje

[KCY]

Thank you very much! The error is now solved! I'm left with the "undefined reference to `app_uart_init'" now.

[awneil]

In your screenshot, the 'code' column next to app_uart.c is empty.

This means there is no code for it - which explains the error.

See: https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/39798/undefined-reference-to-ble_conn_params_init/154441#154441

[KCY]

Thank you for your advice. I added the app_uart defines and made sure that the 'code' column has something and the error is resolved!
