Segger Embedded Studio, Bluetooth mesh light switch example. boards.h: No such file or directory

Question

Hello, 
 I just installed SEGGER Embedded Studio to build the light switch example for Bluetooth mesh. 
 I managed to successfully follow the quick start guide using 3 development kits (nRF52) and the python script. But now I want to build using SEGGER instead and it seems like whatever I do, the solution can't find the root to the nRF52 SDK instance. 
 Here you can see the build log with error. 
 
 And here you can see my global macros. I followed this guide . 
 
 Any ideas?

Hi, 
 Assuming that you are working with Thingy:52, there are three SDKs involved here. 
 
 The first one is nRF5 SDK, which is our "normal" base SDK. 
 The second one is the nRF5 SDK for Mesh, which is a separate SDK that must be used in addition to the correct version of nRF5 SDK. For the latest version, this is nRF5 SDK v15.2.0. 
 The third one is the Nordic Thingy:52 SDK, which is a fork of the nRF5 SDK v13 with the Thingy:52 application. 
 
 The main issue is that while the Thingy:52 firmware is a variant of nRF5 SDK v13, the latest release of the nRF5 SDK for Mesh needs nRF5 SDK v15.2. 
 If you are to mix Thingy:52 firmware with nRF5 SDK for mesh, then the best approach would be to port the Thingy:52 firmware from SDK 13 to SDK 15.2, then use the latest version of nRF5 SDK for Mesh with that version of the nRF5 SDK. 
 There are no versions of the nRF5 SDK for Mesh that are built for nRF5 SDK v13 or older. 
 If you are not working on a Thingy:52 project, then you can just use nRF5 SDK v15.2 and nRF5 SDK for Mesh 3.1.0.
