C++ compilation error using CLI with SDK 14: error: expected declaration before '}' token

[schef]

Hi, i just renamed main.c to main.cpp.

In file included from ../../../main.cpp:57:0:
../../../../../../components/libraries/experimental_cli/nrf_cli.h:597:1: error: expected declaration before '}' token
 }
 ^

What should be the right way to fix that?

If i put all the include to extern "C" i get:

Compiling file: main.cpp
../../../main.cpp:81:1: error: expected declaration before '}' token
 }
 ^

Thanks.

Hi,

Please let me know which example you are trying to compile?

[schef]

examples/peripheral/cli.

I found a bug causing this error: In file: nrf_log_backend_interface.h (sdk\nrf5\components\libraries\experimental_log)

you need to change last lines from:

#endif // SUPPRESS_INLINE_IMPLEMENTATION

#endif //NRF_LOG_BACKEND_INTERFACE_H

#ifdef __cplusplus
}
#endif

to:

#endif // SUPPRESS_INLINE_IMPLEMENTATION

#ifdef __cplusplus
}
#endif

#endif //NRF_LOG_BACKEND_INTERFACE_H

Unfortunatelly C++ compiler will not manage to handle nrf_cli.h macros.

However I was able to compile this example when I removed all CLI related code to newly added file. I moved there all CLI includes, commands and initialization procedures. It only provided API functions to init, start and process CLI. It was working fine.

Yes i saw alot of macros inside.

I can't find a solution to compile CLI under C++ compiler. Maybe a workaround would be to add CLI as precompiled library to c++ project.
