How to edit an nrf5 SDK 11 GCC example in Eclipse

[Antonio]

Hi

Although I followed and got working eclipse Mars on win10 using this great @Vidar tutorial I am still having problem creating a new project under eclipse for any of the other examples, including the template to create our own.

Is there a way to create a new project under eclipse in which we can import or follow a step by step guide for any of the SDK examples?

I am using SDK 11 and SD 132, on the 10040 dev board and our own custom board.

Thanks!

Hi, excuse me~

I'm setting up eclipse and gcc environment, too. I have some other question about debugging. If I press the debug button, eclipse will show informations like this:

'Launching ble_app_hrs Default' has encountered a problem. Error while launching command: gdb --version

Did you meet this problem? Do you know how to fix it?

Hi,

I tried to cover this in the "Create a new Eclipse project" section in the tutorial. Please let me know if any of the instructions given there are unclear.

@Bee, please make sure that you have set the path to JLinkGDBServerCL correctly like explained in the "Configure environment" section of the tutorial. Then make sure insert the following in in the Executable filed in debug launch config -> debugger: ${jlink_path}/${jlink_gdbserver}

Thank you, Vidar. I still have another problem. The project created by me sometimes cannot find <stdint.h> and <string.h>. The problem is described in this post:https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/question/82495/eclipse-cannot-find-stdinth-stringh-on-mac-os-x/

Hi Vidar, Under "Create a new Eclipse Project" you are importing a pre-defined Eclipse project. If I wanted to import, for example, any other of the examples, or my own code, it will not work. What I mean by new Eclipse project is in fact starting an eclipse project from scratch and bringing or making files (.c, .h etc) one by one, or a template that would work with any of the other examples, either with the GCC's Makefile defined for them or with a twist, not just blinky or ble_app_hrs.

Thanks!
