Porting nRF51 project based on SDK12.2 from keil to IAR8.11

[Mehdi]

Hello,
I'm developing a BLE application under nRF51422 based on SDK12.2 using softdevice S130.
Now, I'm porting the application from Keil to IAR 8.11.
There is no compilation I could download the generated binary file to the nRF51 but when debugging,
I see that the software maintaining blocked under the function nrf_delay_us(see the picture below).

Knowing that all of NRF51, NRF52840_XXAA, and NRF52832 symbols are not defined, I want to know the cause of this issue and how to fix it.

Best Regards,
Mehdi.

Hello Mehdi,

SDK12.2 requires some small patches to work with IAR 8 (release was tested and verified with IAR 7). Please refer to this thread: https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/21126/iar-8-10-produce-bugs-when-compiling-nrf_delay_us for more details.

Best regards,

Vidar
