Type Specification file not found

Since I converted my project to KDS 3.0.0 and KSDK 1.2 I'm getting these errors when I start KDS:

I uninstalled KSDK 1.1 since I'm no longer using those components. I just instantiated the fsl_rtc component and started getting the error for it.

Hi William,

the Type Specification file not found error should be visible only in Component Development mode. It is Processor Expert issue that it is visible even when Component Development mode is disabled and I passed this problem to the development team.

To give you some context, Processor Expert components contains list of search paths where to look for some configuration files and in case of some components the list contains redundant paths causing the output in Console view you noticed. This redundancy should be fixed in KSDK 1.3.0. For KSDK 1.1.0 and 1.2.0, please ignore the error.

Sorry for the inconvenience,

Lukas

Hi William,

How did you convert the project from KSDK 1.1.0 to 1.2.0?

If you want to upgrade to KSDK 1.2.0 I would better recommend you to create a new project with KSDK 1.2.0 and PEx and then copy the components configuration from your previous project with KSDK 1.1.0 to this new project.
