Hi,

I msut be doing something extremely stupid again but I cannot get LPCOpen to work properly, either on LCPXpresso 5 or RedSuite 4.3.0

If I import a project from LPCOpen (the zip version), the framework of the project gets imported but none of the actual files.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks

JohnR

Hi Kevin,

Thanks again for the help.

Following your instructions I did get compilation working. One thing threw me - the resulting output files (.o, .i, .axf) get stored under the original LPCOPen project file location not in the LPCXpresso workspace. These files then do not appear under the Debug heading in the Project Explorer window.

JohnR.

Hi,
In LPCOpen, you can't import directly from the ZIP file. You need to unzip the file somewhere on your machine (near your drive root), then follow the procedures at the LPCWare documentation link.

The basics:
[COLOR=#1F497D][FONT=Calibri]- Unpack the ZIP file somewhere.[/FONT][/COLOR]
  [COLOR=#1F497D][FONT=Calibri]- Select the “Import…” option on the file menu (not the Import option on the quickstart box).[/FONT][/COLOR]
  [COLOR=#1F497D][FONT=Calibri]- then import “Existing projects”, [/FONT][/COLOR][COLOR=#1F497D][FONT=Calibri]then select the root directory for a specific platform/board (never the LPCOpen root directory) (Example: lpcopen\applications\lpc8xx\xpresso_projects\nxp_xpresso_812).[/FONT][/COLOR]
  [COLOR=#1F497D][FONT=Calibri]- Make sure the “Copy projects to workspace” option is not checked.[/FONT][/COLOR]
  [COLOR=#1F497D][FONT=Calibri]- Click next to import the projects.[/FONT][/COLOR]

Most project files are linked directly to the LPCOpen tree and not copied into your workspace, so if you edit a file, that edit may appear in another project that uses that file..

Hi Daniel,

Thanks for replying.

I had read the pages you suggested and followed the instructions but I still have problems.

The framework of the projects is imported but with out any code. Clicking on a file entry, eg dualcore_blinky.c gives the message
"Error retrieving content description for resource..........."

All the files are marked with a yellow flag.
