IAR 8.11 - Issue when compiling ble_app_uart example

[Jigney Shah]

Hello,

I get two errors when compiling examples\ble_peripheral\ble_app_uart with IAR 8.11. I have ble_app_uart_pca10040_s132 - nrf52832_xxaa as the active project.

I get the following errors: Error[Pe235]: variable "__stdout" was declared with a never-completed type D:\Projects\Nordic\nRF5_SDK_12.2.0_f012efa\components\libraries\uart\retarget.c 35

Error[Pe235]: variable "__stdin" was declared with a never-completed type D:\Projects\Nordic\nRF5_SDK_12.2.0_f012efa\components\libraries\uart\retarget.c 36

I have the full dlib selected (that was the default, I have not chnaged it). I have been in touch with IAR for 6 weeks now but just getting the run-around. Has someone at Nordic already run into it and solved it? Looks like an IAR issue to me after investigation but I'm hoping someone at Nordic was more successful in getting results.

I have no issues with 7.80. Tried nrf SDK 13 with the same results.

Thanks.

Hi,

The issues with IAR 8 should be fixed in SDK version 12.3.

You can download SDK 12.3 here.

hello,

I have the exact same problem but with SDK v13.1 and IAR v8.11.2. Did you find any solution?

Thanks in advance for your feedback.
