Example code for Eddystone Beacon Application not working

[MylapsDEV]

Hi Everyone,

I am working on the nrf52832 and i am trying to build the Eddystone beacon application example with segger embedded studio.
But when i do, I get the following error: "cannot find ../../../../../../external/micro-ecc/nrf52hf_armgcc/armgcc/micro_ecc_lib_nrf52.a: No such file or directory".
After some searching I found a guide to setup the micro-ecc at https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/nordic/short-range-guides/b/software-development-kit/posts/getting-started-with-nordics-secure-dfu-bootloader. Only step B1a does not work, because there is no make file and running Makefile gives: "'Makefile' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file."

Step B1b gives an example how to run it without using micro_ecc but when I whant to change te defines, i found out that micro_ecc is not selected in the example but that OBERON is selected.

Can sombody help me fix this issue?

Hi,

The project uses Oberon library by default. The reason for why you still get a linker error is because the 'micro_ecc_lib_nrf52.a' library is included in the project.

The easiest solution is to just delete the micro ecc folder in the 'project explorer' view:

Only step B1a does not work, because there is no make file and running Makefile gives: "'Makefile' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file."

There are several ways to get "GNU Make". I use the one distributed in this package: https://github.com/xpack-dev-tools/windows-build-tools-xpack/releases/tag/v2.12-20190422
