Building demo_apps using IAR

[Kewal]

Hi,

I was actually trying to build the hello_world application on IAR 6.5 using the project file(.eww) available I am getting errors related to not being able to find fsl_gpio_driver.h

Before opening the project it prompted me saying backup project file will be created as the project file was broken.

Is there something which I am missing before opening the project and compiling? any dependency on the IAR version ?

Thanks

Hi

1. IAR6.5 can not work for KSDK1.2, please  go to IAR web site to download the latest IAR7.4

IAR ARM

2. once you install the new IAR version. refer attached video for how to build KSDK1.2 project.

can this help you?

Have a great day,

Zhang,

thanks it helped, as the version of the IAR was causing an issue.

But I wanted to know if I can get it working with 6.4 version itself as we are using a safety version of compiler which is 6.4 version. Do you think of anything which would straight away not let me compile or be a road block for me further.

hi Kewal,

IAR6.4 also can not work with KSDK1.2. I ever tried to use IAR6.4 with KSDK on a training session but failed. per presenter's comment, we can't use old IAR version with KSDK anyway.

I didn't receive any notification for the workaround. and I don't think we have so far.

or you can also contact IAR Systems , the company produces IAR SW, if they have any workaround for it.

Hope this helps!

Have a great day,
Zhang Jun

IAR has a patch for this , K64 can run effectively on 6.4 version. The patch which is present for 6.7 version works very well for 6.4 as well.

Thanks,

Hello Kewal,

Have you refer to the doc "Getting Started with Kinetis SDK (KSDK) v.1.2.pdf"  ?

Here : ...\\Freescale\KSDK_1.2.0\doc , pay attention to this part : 3. Run a demo using IAR.. .

And from the "Kinetis SDK v.1.2.0 Release Notes.pdf" , it said use

 IAR Embedded Workbench for ARM® version 7.40.2 , so if it still can not work well , you can change one IAR version to try.

Hope it helps
