I am unable to compile any SDK12 example with SES even following the tutorials.

I am unable to compile any SDK12 example with SES even following the tutorials. Versions in tutorials are different from those actually available resulting that menus shown in tutorials do not exist in the SES version I have (latest one). Also creating a project in SES from scratch with the controller nRF51822 doesn't compile because the selected controller does not support certain features included in the assembly files. 

All I need is to be able to create a project, compile my code with SES, add the S110 softdevice and flash my target board. I have one nRF51 DK board as well.

I must develop a project based on nRF51822 and time is running short. Can anyone help?

If you are not limited to SDK12 you will find SES examples in SDK14 & 15.

Yes, but they don't support nRF51 DK, that's the problem...

Sorry, I had forgotten there were not '51DK examples in the newer SDK. I assume the tutorials you are referring to are those for importing a Keil (or IAR) project like this blog? Unfortunately I don't recall steps it took the one time I did it about 1.5 years ago but do remember it did take some work.

When you tried to make SES porject from scratch, did you use the Nordic template or the more generic Segger? There you can select the nRF51822 chip and it looks like it will create a project with a blank main and appropriate support files.

Finally, is your project going to be too big for the free Keil version?

My project is too big for the free Keil version. In the meantime I downloaded an older version of SES and I almost succeeded to compile: I get one warning that kills the Build that is "cannot find entry symbol reset_handler; defaulting to 000000000001b000". I hope top solve it soon and then I can start.

Hi,

Have you included the startup file from the blog post in your project? The reset_handler should be defined there.  Another approach is to backport an existing SES project for the 52 series, I posted an example of that in this thread: https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/42662/segger-studio-backward-migration
