Port SDK examples to Arduino IDE

[dportz]

Hello everyone!  My team and I would like to port the SDK examples to the Arduino IDE, but we have found that the Arduino IDE does not know what board is being used.  We think that the IDE that we are coming from has this information in the project file, but when we try to add it to the source file, the problem is still there.  This is all after copying ALL header files, removing the <> and adding "" at the #includes, removing all path references, etc.

We have been trying for a few days to get this project to build, but have had no success.

Is there a way to port a project from the SDK to Arduino?

The source IDE does not have to be Segger Embedded Studio- it could be the makefile, found one level up.  If that is easier to do, could you provide assistance on porting the project over to Arduino IDE from whatever is easiest?

Here's our setup:

-Windows 10

-nRF52832

-SDK 15.3.0

-Segger Embedded Studio -> Arduino IDE

Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks,

David

I think there is already a port of Arduino for nRF52 - from Adafruit or Sparkfun ... ?

Hi awneil, yes I am aware of a few ports to the Arduino.  I am wondering about the Nordic SDK though... Is the port you're talking about for the Nordic SDK?

Thanks,

David

I don't know - you'd have to check.

There are no ports that I could find.  We ended up sourcing the sandeepmistry and Adafruit libraries (with a few modifications) to build in Arduino.  This didn't allow us to port the examples over, however.
