How to change overlay settings on ncs?

[peter.min]

Hi,

sdk: ncs v1.5.0

path:D:\ncs\v1.5.0\applications\2_hello_world_board

overlay file path:D:\ncs\v1.5.0\applications\2_hello_world_board\board.overlay

if i change the overlay file name as nrf5340dk_nrf5340_cpuapp.overlay，Settings are available.

if i change the overlay file name as board.overlay，Settings are not available.

How to set it up to change the name of the overlay file to:board.overlay.

Thank you for all your assistance.
Kind regards,

Hi,

 

You can either create a $(BOARD).overlay file, as you describe in option A.

Or you can explicitly set this in the CMakeLists.txt file:

# SPDX-License-Identifier: Apache-2.0

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.13.1)

set(DTC_OVERLAY_FILE "board.overlay")

find_package(Zephyr REQUIRED HINTS $ENV{ZEPHYR_BASE})
project(hello_world)

target_sources(app PRIVATE src/main.c)

 

Note the overlay is defined just below the cmake_minimum_required().

Note2: you need to delete your build folder and re-generate the project

 

Kind regards,

Håkon
