Assembler error in segger embedded studio while importing IAR project

[vitry]

Hi,

I tried importing existing project (In IAR) to Segger embedded studio, And getting following error.

4> C:/Users/sv51949/Documents/TAG/CodeBase/Release_1_4/nRF5_SDK_15.2.0_9412b96/nRF5_SDK_15.2.0_9412b96/examples/ble_peripheral/ble_app_hrs/pca10040/s132/ses/_build/app_error_handler_iar.asm: Assembler messages:

Build failed

When code is built, Ses compiling the files but giving error in assembler. Default example projects are working fine with SES.

Can you help resolving the error.

Thanks in advance.

SES uses the GCC assembler; presumably, IAR have their own assembler?

Different Assemblers do not (necessarily) share the same - or even compatible - syntax.

Assembler code is, almost by definition, not portable - so you are going to have to port your code.

But note the file name:

vitry said:

app_error_handler_iar.asm

It has "_iar" in the name to tell you that it's specific to IAR - so you need to change that to the appropriate version for SES/GCC.

I suggest that you look at one of the supplied SDK examples to see what that is ...

I did find there is an app_error_handler_gcc.c file also, and i included that instead of the _iar version.  However I get an error at the line:

"ldr r0, =%4                    \n"

saying "unknown token in expression"

Anyone else gotten around this issue?

I use the .c file in my project, not the .asm file, available here (I haven't tested this particular project however):

.\components\libraries\util\app_error_handler_iar.c
