MCUXpresso IDE: Cannot install the SDK for FRDM-K66F

[philipp_zh]

Hi all,

When I try to install the SDK for the FRDM-K66F [1], I get an import error and the SDK is not added, see attached error.

When I generate an SDK just for the device on the FRDM-K66F [2], the import appears to work fine.

Any guess what the problem might be?

Thanks in advance,
Philipp

Hi Philipp,

your package [1] only has support for KDS in it, that's why it does not work.

Your package[2]  works because it has MCUXpresso support in it (IDE).

Hoi Erich,

Thanks a lot! That was indeed the problem. And the solution was right there in my post!

Hi,

the problem is that you are importing an SDK made for KDS. MCUXpresso IDE can only handle an SDK containing support for it. Please re-download the SDK and ensure that you select MCUXpresso IDE as the toolchain.

We accept that the current error is not ideal, we are looking at improving it in the next release.

Ciao,

MCUXpresso support.
