Trying to build LPC4370_LEDblinky with MCUXpresso

[simon_prentice]

This is my first LPC4370 project.

Imported the project LPC4370_LEDblinky into MCUXpresso (IDE v10.2.0 [Build 759] [2018-05-15] ) and get "LPC43xx.h: No such file or directory" errors when building.

According to the "Using an LPC-Link2 as an LPC4370 evaluation board" instructions I am following I need  CMSIS_LPC43xx_DriverLib but I can't find it and suspect it may not be relevant to MCUXpresso.

Any ideas?

--------------------------------

Instructions

Simple example application

A simple blinky application for the LPC4370/LPC-Link2 can be found in the attached LPC4370_LPCLink2_LEDblinky.zip. Download and save the zipfile to your local disk, then use the LPCXpresso "Quickstart Panel -> Import project(s)" option to import it into your workspace. In order to build this, you will also need to import the CMSIS_LPC43xx_DriverLib library project from the LPCXpresso examples into your workspace. For details of importing, building and debugging projects - please see the LPCXpresso User Guide, provided within the product itself.

Dude!  Thank you.  Perfect, clear instructions.  Worked like a charm.

Hi Simon Prentice,

For run the example, you have to import the CMSIS_LPC43xx_DriverLib, because including some header files that the example use, to find it go to C:\MCUXpressoIDE_10.2.0_759\ide\Examples\Legacy\CMSIS_CORE\CMSIS_CORE_Latest.zip, and only you have to import as the same way as the example, in the "Quickstart Panel -> Import project(s)" option, and with that you are able to run it.

Wish it helps you!
If you still have problems, please let me know!

regards,
Miguel
