I'm trying to get blinky to build using SES. It would be great if I could start with an example that builds and work from there, but apparently you guys don't have such a thing. So I copied the blinky project to a new folder and tried a build. Just as with the original blinky, I get an error concerning the .text and .rodata tags in the flash_placement.xml file:
So I remove those lines from the flash_placement and try to build again. It fails with a whole new set of errors:
Hi Bret,
Bret Foreman said:Note that there are two similar links.
I am not sure about that problem of accessing website, but what I can see is a single installer in two flavors (for 64b and 32b versions of windows).
Bret Foreman said:It turns out they both download slightly different versions of SES 7.10.
The size of 5.42b installer is around 555 KB, and the size of 7.10 installer is around 254 KB.
Bret Foreman said:Where did you get SES version 5.42a? Do you have an installer for it?
We get from installers from Segger website, and for sure you must also do that. In case of any problem, you may contact Segger.

I got a reply from Segger and they sent me a link to download SES version 5.42a directly. Here's a screenshot of my about screen:
I tried to build blinky with this version of SES and got the following error:
Can you tell me how to clear this error?
It looks like the linker is trying to link in the thumb_crt0.o object from a previous build with SES 7. A full rebuild should do the trick in that case. If not, you can delete the 'Output' folder in your project directory before you try again.
It appears to load the hex file, but the board won't advertise.
The CPU is halted after programming and needs a reset to start execution again. Could this have been the problem?
The Programmer app has an "auto reset" option which you can enable to have it automatically reset the target after programming.
