nRF51-DK + Keil MDK, how to build the example, - peripheral - bsp ??????? like a garbage development environment

[escape_earth]

I'm a super beginner in nRF51-DK + nRF SDK 12.3.0

I can't build the example, uart and bsp in SDK, both SES and Keil MDK.

1. Installed Keil MDK (not yet licensed ) 

2. copied bsp_pca10028 from Pack Installer

3. tried to build project and faced problems continuously.

 - default compiler version 5 ??? 

 - changed compiler version

 - other problem, ArmClang: error: unsupported option '--99', changed option to default and deleted --99

   

 - another problem, ???  ㅡㅡ; 

is there any correct information ???

Hi there,

You tried your guide?  I tried your guide but I can't download that.

Arm Developer site never allow download and provide download page.

it asks continuously login, I logged in but it never shows any download page..... 

Really useless development environment....

Hi,

Yes, I've tried it and was able to download compiler v5 but I now realize that it's only available for people with a Pro license. What I suggest:

1. You can contact keil support and ask them to send you the compiler version
2. Keil free version has a size limit that means that you would at some point need to pay for the pro license if you're developing something close to a real application. Since you've just started, I would suggest that you either switch to using SES or switch to the newer nRF52 which is supported in the new and updated nRF Connect SDK.
