Getting this error trying to compile Seeed_Tiny_BLE_Get_Started

Error: Cannot open source input file "device.h": No such file or directory in "extras/mbed_e188a91d3eaa/platform.h" Anyone know how to fix this please?

Question relating to:

Last updated: 27 Aug 2020
The Tiny BLE is a Bluetooth Low Energy development board designed with low energy consumption and small size in mind. Features include BLE, CMSIS DAP, current measuring and motion detection.

Update to latest libraries and then remove nRF51822/nordic-sdk/components/gpiote/app_gpiote.c. This may temporarily solve the compile error.

Did you update the nRF51822 library. The latest nRF51822 library is revision 111, and a update of BLE_API library is required too (latest v341).

Hi Again Yihui,

I have now deleted and re imported it followed by a lib update it now compiles to success. I now just need to wait for the platform to arrive. :) Thank you for your help.

I got the same problem. It seems some changes of the online compiler cause the issue. I will ask mbed team to help checking the issue.
