Hi Tim,
If you are using KDS it will be easy. Create a new KDS project and in the Wizard select to use KSDK. Then go to menu Project > Properties > C/C++ Build > Settings > Linker > Miscelaneous and add "ksdk_platform_lib.a" for the MCU you are using.
E.g. if you use K64 C:\Freescale\KSDK_1.0.0\lib\ksdk_platform_lib\kds\K64F12\Debug
Finally just copy/add your source files to the new project.
In IAR is the same process but it is more complicated because an empty project does not contain the paths you need and the MCU configuration. You can copy the paths and settings from an existing project example.
Regards,
Carlos
