Custom board build fails with SDK 1.5.0, works with 1.4.0

[Kyrre Aalerud]

We are getting a "No SOURCES given to target: drivers__ipm" error making build fail for our custom board when trying to move to 1.5.0 for official nRF53 production support.
Cmakelists in the sdk's appear identical, and the only change is running west from commandline environment for 1.5.0 instead of 1.4.0.

Hi Kyrre, 

Can you please elaborate on where you get the message "No SOURCES given to target: drivers__ipm"? What environment are you using i.e. SES og command line?Can you provide full output?

Thank you.

Kind regards,
Øyvind

SES just failed with little info so I did this to a new build folder on commandline after starting the commandline from the toolchain manager. It is accessing the correct folder at user/<username>/ncs/1.5.0/ equal to the results from 1.4.0 but the build differs when cmake gets to some libraries.

Fow 1.4.0 it looks like this:

I do see multiple warnings in both SDK's but with different "styles":

Have you tried a standard sample to see how that builds? Can you try to remove the build folder, or build in a new build folder?

If that does not provide any answers, please attach your project for me to replicate.

Thanks

Kind regards,

I have tried new build folders.
The project and board was based on the bluetooth/peripheral example which builds fine in 1.5.0.
1.5.0 cannot build the old sample though due to changes in bt_gatt_indicate_func_t.

I cannot upload source here. Alternative way?

Also, what settings are you using in SES under Tools -> Options -> nRF Connect?

[Kyrre Aalerud]

I launch SES directly from toolchain manager and it receives the correct paths. I change no other settings.

The failing compiles/configures also fail in SES but I am simply running them on commandline.
west build -b Hy5_AIO_nrf5340_cpuapp -d build_1.5.0 >build_1.5.0.txt 2>&1

When I work in SES and need to expand the custom devicetree I use the --cmake-only option. I have not found a good way to do this in SES as it just keeps making non permanent overlays if you edit devicetree with SES.
