Cross-platform support
The environment is specifically designed to provide users with everything required for
professional embedded C programming and development, while supporting Windows,
macOS and Linux.

I am afraid you will not be able to use RUI3 on Embedded Studio. The structure of RUI3 is based on Arduino. Embedded studio has integrated toolchains already that is designed for ARM microcontrollers.RUI3 is not a toolchain for ARM microcontrollers. It is another layer of abstraction which supports Arduino inspired APIs.
Back to the forums. Plenty of similar problems but no real solutions. Eventually found a blog post "Segger Embedded Studio - A Cross Platform IDE" by Hung Bui from Oct 2016 that was supposed to help but didn't. Down at the bottom of the comments was one from a user called secondbest, who claimed there was a solution in another thread. He had posted what he claims is the correct set of instructions for conversion from Keil projects to Segger, but more importantly had done the work for several projects and put it all on github.
I've now successfully built and linked the blinky and ble_app_hrs projects in the examples_segger folder of the github project. But really Nordic should release a 12.4 of their SDK with SES support or add nRF51 projects to their latest SDK with SES projects ready for use if they want to keep developers onboard.
1) Download nRF5 SDK v12.3.0, unzip to C:\Bluetooth\Nordic_Semi\
2) Download flash_placement.xml, ses_nrf51_startup.s
copy to SDK folder "\components\toolchain\embedded_studio"
copy thumb_crt0.s to same SDK folder from C:\Program Files\SEGGER\SEGGER Embedded Studio for ARM 4.50\source\thumb_crt0.s
3) Install, licence and open SES v4.50, which is the latest at time of writing. (You do not need to install an earlier version as 'secondbest' had it).
4) File - Import Project - Import Keil MDK Project.
I started with C:\Bluetooth\Nordic_Semi\nRF5_SDK_12.3.0_d7731ad\examples\peripheral\blinky\pca10028\blank\arm5_no_packs which is without softdevice, simplest possible project.
Select Internal Toolchain.
5) No softdevice is present so flash_s130 did not exist in Build Configuration. Delete all Public Configurations in Build Configuration and leave only Common and Internal in Private Configurations. Add one Public Configuation eg called nrf51422_xxac, expand it and check boxes so that it inherits from Internal and Common.
Segger is a well-known company in the embedded space that provides software, hardware, and development tools for embedded systems. Segger Embedded Studio (SES) is a professional cross-platform IDE for ARM Core microcontrollers. It compares to other professional IDEs in the space including ARM Keil and IAR (LINKs). Some of the advantages of SES include:
Embedded Studio is a powerful C/C++ IDE (Integrated Development Environment) for ARM microcontrollers. It is specifically designed to provide users with everything needed for professional embedded development: An all-in-one solution providing stability and a continuous workflow.
Many of the most renowned corporations that manufacture products with embedded systems, use the SEGGER Embedded Studio and rely on it in critical applications. In addition, its quality is validated from independent test houses and commercial test suites.
As the market standardizes on ARM based microcontrollers, many global manufacturing companies begin to standardize their development of embedded systems on the SEGGER Embedded Studio. By standardizing on SEGGER's toolchain, customers are able to vastly improve efficiency and time to market for new products. In one environment, they move freely between all ARM based microcontrollers from all major vendors. To standardize development on one toolchain provides freedom with regards to hardware and silicon vendors, enables reuse of code across projects, and reduces costs for training, maintenance, and managment of licenses.
Embedded Studio is an industry leading streamlined and powerful IDE. It is specifically designed for professional embedded development: an all-in-one solution providing stability and a continuous workflow.
Embedded Studio is created by embedded developers for embedded developers! Software teams at SEGGER use Embedded Studio for all production grade SEGGER software. They supplement the Embedded Studio development, share their experience, and provide feedback and requirements for a 'perfect' embedded development IDE.
With its highly-optimized, royalty-free, ANSl/lSO-C compliant standard C library, which has been developped specifically for embedded applications, you can expect the highest performance for your applications. The code quality produced by GCC or LLVM/Clang is on a par with commercial compilers.
The training provides insights and answers to show how you can get more from your embedded device, aimed at software, and firmware engineers who are new to ARM Cortex-M devices, want to know more about best use of the devices, or consider to switch to this processor family.
Embedded Studio is the all-in-one solution for managing, building, testing and deploying embedded applications. This means smooth, efficient development operations thanks to its wide range of features. The powerful project manager enables the management of projects large and small. Version control features enable automatic application deployment.
The is expansive support for almost any ARM or RISC-V-based device. Using the Project Wizard and J-Link support, most basic projects are initiated easily with a mouse. For comprehensive projects when the hardware is pre-configured there are the Embedded studio Support Packages. These include memory layout, system initialization, and interrupt vectors.
For the past 8 years, I have been writing about embedded technologies, added to my technical, academic, and medical editorial experience, with companies like Elsevier and Cambridge University Press. I tell people to read what I write, not try to pronounce my last name. I am always available for comments and suggestions you can reach me at product...@circuitcellar.com and I promise I will take the time to reach back out to you. I live in the North East with my wonderful family.
The LPC1317FBD64 is an Arm Cortex-M3 based microcontroller for embedded applications featuring a high level of integration and low power consumption. The Arm Cortex-M3 is a next generation core that offers system enhancements such as enhanced debug features and a higher level of support block integration. The LPC1317FBD64 operates at CPU frequencies of up to 72 MHz. The Arm Cortex-M3 CPU incorporates a 3-stage pipeline and uses a Harvard architecture with separate local instruction and data buses as well as a third bus for peripherals. The Arm Cortex-M3 CPU also includes an internal prefetch unit that supports speculative branching.
