The result is same.

char *p_test = "Testing string";

NRF_LOG_PROC("*** system start ***\r\n");
NRF_LOG_PROC("* target : %s\r\n", (uint32_t)p_test); // DOOR_LOCK_DEST);

****************************

00> *** system start ***

00> * target : s

Hellow,

I used (uint32_t) before and got desirable results in other projects.

Sure, there were no warning and error.

Below is the code and compile results.

They are same as other projects.

Is there any setting parameter I don't know?

OK, I see.

But, from that link:

"NRF_LOG_INFO() stores a pointer to the string and not a copy of the string."

maybe air is falling foul of (something like) that?

@air - have you tried stepping into the code to see what's happening?

(since the NRF_LOG_... are all macros, you may want to view the preprocessor output)

Hi,

NRF_LOG_PROC does not seem to be part of nRF5 SDK v12.3.0 from what I can tell. (I did not find it using a global text search over the full SDK folder.) Can you try with one of the documented logger macros instead? E.g. NRF_LOG_INFO()?

Alternatively, share the definition of NRF_LOG_PROC from your project?

Hi,

Not a char* in our logger module: NRF_LOG_INFO how to print log with string parameter.

Why are you casting the strings to be (uint32_t) ?

Surely, "%s" requires a string - which is a (char*) ?

EDIT: No, that's not it - see below.
