Using CMSIS source in project directory

[lpcware]

I am having several projects using CMSIS in my workspace. The settings of clock may be different for different projects, for which I have to change defines in CMSIS system_lpc17xx.c .
1. Is there any way in which each project can have its own copy of CMSIS source rather than sharing same source in workplace. Or somehow change the defines in system_lpc17xx as per project for different projects ?
2. How to tell the version control system to include the CMSIS source ?

Thanks

To generate projects with different clock settings it's very easy to copy SystemInit() from system_LPC11xx.c in your local cr_startup_lpcxx.c :)

Then rename it and change it's call in cr_startup_lpcxx.c. Copy also all defines (like SYSPLLCTRL_Val...) and your local SystemInit() is just changing clock settings ;)

Simplest thing to do would be to just put a copy of the cmsis c file into your main application project with the change made to it, and that will get linked in instead of the one from the library project.

Or you could go all the way, and just copy all the files from the CMSIS library project into you main application project, and delete all references (include paths, link paths etc) to the CMSIS library project.

HTH!
