NFC reader library (6.13) - Import example failure

[bwinter]

I am starting a new project based on the NFC reader library.
Using the PNEV5180 hardware for the moment.
To start "fresh" i installed a new copy of the the latest MCUXpresso IDE v11.4.1_6260.
I downloaded the latest SW352230 (NFC Reader Library v06.13.00 for PN5180).

When i follow the PN5180 SW Quick start guide (UM10954) and import all examples (as .zip) the examples don't compile because not all files are copied and examples get an _mcux extension.

A forum suggestion was to un-zip the file and import the whole package as directory. This method gives the same results.

Simple importing file for file also doesn't do the trick).

However when importing an older (5.21) version of this library everything works as it did in the past. All examples compile and run as expected.

(it looks like the main reason of not working is the placement of *project files in the new mcux directorys)

What is the right method to import the latest version of this library?
Will NXP change the documentation so it's up to date?

Hi @bwinter ,

The unzip method still works, just note not select the copy option before importing the projects.

I tried with the same environment and the result turned out to be ok as expected.

I will check with the expert team regarding this topic later.

Have a great day,
Kan

Kan_Li, your method indeed works. "copy option" must be turned off.

I thought i had tried it without the copy option but apparently not.
So the fasted way for the moment is just to unzip the files to your project directory, start MCUXpresso with that directory and "import project(s) from file system...", select "Project directory (unpacked)" and deselect the copy option as the files are already in your project directory.
