Problem with integration of nrf_cli_libuarte on FreeRTOS project

[chester45]

Hello,

I'm trying to integrate cli_libuarte on project that use FreeRTOS. I'm basing on example form SDK cli_libuarte how ever this does not use RTOS. What I'm facing is issues with app_timer. The projects uses implementation from app_timer_freertos.c how ever this not define functions like app_timer_cnt_get() and app_timer_cnt_diff_compute() which are used in nrf_libuarte_async.c file. For this reason the application cannot link correctly.

Event if I set NRF_LIBUARTE_ASYNC_WITH_APP_TIME to 0 there are still some error related to app_timer_t:

e.g:

nrf_libuarte_async.h:280:28: error: initialization of 'void **' from incompatible pointer type 'app_timer_t * const*' {aka 'struct app_timer_t * const*'} [-Werror=incompatible-pointer-types]
                           (&CONCAT_2(_name,_app_timer)))) \

Second issue is that it looks like content of nrfx_timer.c file is not compiled, there are undefined references to functions from this file. NRFX_TIMER_ENABLE is defined to 1 in sdk_config.h so it should be ok. The file compiles when I remove #if NRFX_CHECK(NRFX_TIMER_ENABLED) from file.

I would appreciate any help and hints.

Can you please attach your project so that i can attempt to fix the broken links and implement the missing pieces in app_timer_freertos.c to make this work.

Hi unfortunately I cannot attach the project.

I am pretty sure that it is a configuration challenge you are seeing and the configuration change is in the sdk_config.h file. 

Can you post all the errors as it is from your compiler so that i have more info on trying to pinpoint which configuration in sdk_config needs a change?
