This pull request allows applications to use the library to work without having to have the SEGGER libraries installed. I.e. if you are only using CMSIS-DAP.

Hey,

pynrfjprog is intended to be strictly a wrapper around the nrfjprog DLL (which wraps the JLink ARM dll). What's your use case for this as opposed to just using pyOCD?

I've done a similar thing here: https://github.com/NordicSemiconductor/pynrfjprog/blob/040d5b92074a36f913832bcae8fb2259946487f9/tests/ci_tests.py#L34

where you can pass in a dummy path when initializing just to get api = API.API('NRF52') to succeed. but what's your reason for needing this?

Hi, We're building an environment were we are using nrfjprog which fails when JLink is not installed. This solves the problem. If I read you right this should be solved in nrfjprog instead !?

Hey,

Yes, it should be fixed in nrfjprog: https://github.com/NordicSemiconductor/nrfjprog. However, I recently just added pyOCD support for this - still in development but planning on making a release on GitHub in a few days. If this is the case please create and issue or PR in the nrfjprog repo. I need more info on your specific use case (using pyOCD) or anther transport?

Great, I'll do that and close this.
