Hi all,
I am using lpc1313 mcu. My question is how to create a new project that uses the freertos library project provided with the FreeRTOS-simple-demo-for-LPCXpresso-LPC1343 project files. I am able to compile and run the simpledemo project successfully in my lpc1313 board. But when i create a new project same as the simpledemo project the compiler shows lot of errors. The main error shown is
FreeRTOSconfig.h: No such file or directory. But this file is already in my new project.

I used the freertos library project in my new project as per this link. http://support.code-red-tech.com/CodeRedWiki/LibraryProjects. I also included my new project include path in freertos library project similar to simpledemo project. I double checked that all my new project settings and files are same as the simpledemo project. But only the latter compiles.
I am stuck at this. Any help? :confused:

In your "include" statement, include the entire path for the file along with the file name.
ie:
#include "C/mydocuments/LPC/FreeRTOSconfig.h"

You have to tell the compiler where to find include files. The correct way of doing this is to set them in the project properties. You don't need to use absolute paths as suggested william.vh.

Suggest you
- read the FAQ
http://support.code-red-tech.com/CodeRedWiki/CodeRedFAQ#Projects
- take at look at the "Directories" setting for the compiler in the project that is working, to see which include paths it is using

Problem is with the include path as suggested by CodeRedSupport. At the time of library file inclusion i wrongly entered like this
${workspace_loc:/project} instead of
${workspace_loc:/project/src}
Thanks CodeRed for supporting me.:)
