CORDIO BLE BareMetal support

Mbed OS Best practice
#1

Hi,
We are looking at the possibility of using CORDIO BLE stack in one of our project. We would like to know, whether CORDIO BLE stack support baremetal (no-RTOS, no Mbed OS) systems.

Your response would be highly appreciated.
Best Regards,
Anil Kumar Jena

I would also like to know if it is possible to use bare metal profile with BLE

Hi Anil,

The answer is yes, there is a Cordio stack porting information here.

It is working!

Just add ble and cordio to requires in mbed_app.json. In my case (nRF52832) it was:

"requires": ["bare-metal", "events", "ble", "cordio", "cordio-ll", "cordio-nordic-ll" ],

You can also enable other APIs like described here: https://os.mbed.com/docs/mbed-os/v6.0/bare-metal/using-the-bare-metal-profile.html#2-adding-apis

All available APIs for bare-metal are listed here: https://os.mbed.com/docs/mbed-os/v6.0/bare-metal/index.html

In my case i only was able to compile with GCC at the moment. Other platforms should already work with ARMC6. Here is an overview: https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbed-os/issues/13099
