RE: Adding uart functionality to a project

It looks like if I edit the project file directly, it works. Not sure why I have to do that...

I took a quick look over this now and it seems like I made some mistakes:

In step 3 I think it should be ..\Desktop\blinky\pca10040\blank\ses.. and not ..\Desktop\blinky\pca10040\s132\ses..
In step 6, I don't think you should remove blank\ses\blinky_pca10040.emProject.

I will go through it again when I get the time and update the text.

Best regards,

Simon

I was able to make this work with another example (but the approach should be the same), I did the following:

Moved ..\nRF5_SDK_16.0.0_98a08e2\examples\peripheral\blinky to ..\Desktop\blinky
Followed this approach
Opened ..\Desktop\blinky\pca10040\s132\ses\blinky_pca10040_s132.emProject and added $(SDK)/components/libraries/fifo; to c_user_include_directories

Added the following to ..\Desktop\blinky\pca10040\blank\config\sdk_config.hOpened ..\Desktop\blinky\pca10040\blank\ses\blinky_pca10040.emProject in SES

//==========================================================
// <q> APP_FIFO_ENABLED  - app_fifo - Software FIFO implementation
 

#ifndef APP_FIFO_ENABLED
#define APP_FIFO_ENABLED 1
#endif

// <e> APP_UART_ENABLED - app_uart - UART driver
//==========================================================
#ifndef APP_UART_ENABLED
#define APP_UART_ENABLED 1
#endif
// <o> APP_UART_DRIVER_INSTANCE  - UART instance used
 
// <0=> 0 

#ifndef APP_UART_DRIVER_INSTANCE
#define APP_UART_DRIVER_INSTANCE 0
#endif

// </e>

In SES, I added ..\nRF5_SDK\nRF5_SDK_16.0.0_98a08e2\components\libraries\uart\app_uart_fifo.c and ..\nRF5_SDK_16.0.0_98a08e2\components\libraries\fifo\app_fifo.c to Project 'Blinky_pca10040' → nRF_Drivers
Remove Desktop\blinky\pca10040\blank\ses\blinky_pca10040.emProject and Desktop\blinky\pca10040\blank\ses\blinky_pca10040.emSession
Build project from SES
Right click on #include "app_fifo.h" in app_uart_fifo.c and click on Go to included file... and it shoud work

Best regards,

Simon
