Tips on porting example from Mesh SDK version 1.0.1 to 2.2.0.

[Jan]

Hi,

I'm trying to adapt this example to use the latest mesh SDK version. 

I have checked the other example which uses version 2.2.0 but the other one is perfect as a starting point for my project. 

Will this be some quick fix by moving some files around/changing some names or do I have to re-write all of the code? If not I could use some tips on how to update the SDK version.

Best regards, 

Jan

Hi Jan,

You could take a look at the migration guide. I would recommend at least updating to mesh sdk v2.0.1, as this is the first Bluetooth qualified mesh stack. However, I would note that the app used in that example is not available online or on github. It is only used as a demo. Therefore, I would recommend using the nRF Mesh app, as well as the mesh sdk v2.2.0. Why is the v1.0.1 example a better starting point than the v2.2.0 example, if I may ask?

Kind Regards,

Bjørn

Hi Bjorn, 

I used the nRF Connect app for PC to connect with v1.0.1 example and that works perfectly. 

As for why the v1.0.1 (looks like) a better starting point for me: 

For my project I need almost exactly what this example offers, I just what to add a couple of new features. The system needs a bridge/proxy node to communicate with a laptop.

Also since it is for an internship time is scarce and I would like to just get started with implementing as fast as possible and not lose time recreating this functionality for v2.2.0

Hi Jan,

Ok, then I would try to migrate the v1.0.1 to v2.0.1 or v2.1.1 & see if that works. Good luck!
