NRF_ESB_CREATE_PAYLOAD() syntax error in sdk v14.1

[Ed]

Using GCC compiler with Eclipse, sdk v14.1, nRF52832, in ESB protocol mode.

The code compiles and builds just fine, all links are ok, but the code below issues a syntax error message in Eclipse with no further information. I even copied the main.c file, makefile, and sdk_config.h files from the esb_ptx example to see if I was doing something wrong but this problem still exists...

/* payload */
//create an initializer for a TX data packet
nrf_esb_payload_t           tx_payload = NRF_ESB_CREATE_PAYLOAD(0, \
                            0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, \
                            0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, \
                            0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, \
                            0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00);

Below is a picture of what this looks like ..

note: This did not happen in SDK v12.3

I don't see any difference between SDK v12.3 and SDK v14.1. It looks like Eclipse didn't find the definition of NRF_ESB_CREATE_PAYLOAD. Could you check if the default example has the same issue ? I assume it's an error, not warning and you can't compile ?

Hello,

I did check the default spi example and it also has this problem. I am able to successfully compile the code with no errors but it still appears as a "syntax error" with eclipse

I'm not so sure why Eclipse couldn't parse the function. But if y, ou can build, compile, and debug, I think it should be safe to ignore the indication. Please be aware Segger Embedded Studio (which also uses gcc) is now supported officially and it's also free.
