The image add successfully but it does not work to nRF52832, if I do programming softdevice in nRFGO or command line then everything works fine.
I don't know why softdevice could not be an image file add into IAR. does anyone did try it before?
Actually there is a missing step in previous advice for IAR and using a combined programming action with application and SoftDevice. The build steps are as before, and the Softdevice is added via the following but Flash Loader does not work and so must be unchecked:
Options->Debugger->Images:
Download Extra Image
[
Checked
]
Path:
blah\blah\s132_nrf52_5.1.0_softdevice.hex
Offset:
0
Options->Debugger->Download:
Verify Download [
Checked
]
Use Flash Loader: [
Un-Checked
]
This works as-is with the vanilla linker icf file and standard SoftDevice settings (Nordic Uart example based) which doesn't need editing:
