Cannot compile Zephyr Project using CMD

[Giannis Anastasopoulos]

Dear All,

I am trying to compile an application based on the Zephyr project for the nrf52. I am following the instructions from here.

I am using Windows. Using SES everything works as expected (the program compiles).

When I try to run the command to build an application from the available samples, I get the following message:

-- west build: build configuration:
       source directory: c:\ncs\zephyr\samples\basic\blinky
       build directory: c:\ncs\zephyr\build
       BOARD: nrf52_pca10040 (origin: CMakeCache.txt)
-- west build: building application
Error: could not find CMAKE_PROJECT_NAME in Cache
ERROR: command exited with status 1: 'C:\Program Files\CMake\bin\cmake.EXE' --build 'c:\ncs\zephyr\build'

Since Zephyr is used also for the nrf9160 programming, perhaps someone here knows/understands what is the problem.

Thank you very much

Hi! 

Unfortunately, we don't provide support for Zephyr on the nRF52 series here at DevZone. 

More information can be in this link, and as stated in the bottom of the page: "Also if you want to get involved with Zephyr, or simply need help as a user, you can join the Zephyr mailing list or join the #zephyrproject IRC channel."

Nordic Semiconductor is part of the Zephyr Project and contributes with misc. components/software, but we do not give support for Zephyr running on the nRF52-series.  

Thanks for your understanding. 

Best regards,

Heidi
