nrf51-ble-driver for x64

[PBK]

Hello.

Do you have a version of the BLE driver for Windows x64? Also, is the source code available, or the RPC protocol documentation?

Thanks.

There is currently no 64 bit version available of BLE Driver for Windows, though the 32 bit version can be used on x64 version of Windows. There are no immediate plans to make a 64 bit build for Windows.

The source code and documentaiton for the serialization protocol is available in SDK 7.2.0 (not available in SDK 8.0).

Is there no update on that? "32 bit version can be used on x64 version of Windows"...true, but I'm trying to link it from a 64bits program and it can't work. It would be definitely usefull if you could provide a x64 version of the driver for this situation....

BTW, where can I find the latest version of the source code (corresponding to release 0.5.0)? Then I could try to compile it myself for x64.

Hi, the source code for the 0.5.0 release is available on github: github.com/.../v0.5.0 The readme there provides info on the build procedure.

Great, that's really professional. I'll try to compile this early next week! I see you have a CMakeLists.txt, it should then be pretty easy to get it to compile!

I'm using Visual Studio 2015. I see your build system does not support that. Any plan to add this support in the future?
