C++ development using nRF51 SDK on Keil

[azdem]

It seems that many people use GCC toolchain (with "high" setup effort) for utilizing SDK in C++ development. It should however be possible also on Keil with less setup effort, I hope.

It is obvious that the SDK libraries must be included as below:

extern "C" {
#include "sdklib.h"
}

What are the other steps & issues to take care in order to configure the Keil for C++ development? Can some expert please direct me to the right documentation or share his own experience?

I am aware that similar questions have been asked before: devzone.nordicsemi.com/.../ devzone.nordicsemi.com/.../ devzone.nordicsemi.com/.../ However I could not find any clear answer.

Update: log.txt of the blinky_example from below.

Hi

I tried this myself, and was able to compile C++ code simply by opening the options for all my source files and defining the files as 'C++ source code' files.

I modified the blinky example in the SDK and added a small LedWrapper class to make LED management a bit more intuitive:

blinky_example_cpp.zip

Feel free to have a look at the example and see if you can get it to run.

Regards Torbjørn

Thanks a lot. I will check that out.

Unfortunately, it did not work.

Did you get the same errors as the ones in the log.txt file when you compiled Torbjørns example code?

I'm having the same issue and getting the same results as the above log. It looks like the issue is due to the compiler not properly being set to use C++. I tried various compiler settings and wasn't able to fix anything.
