SDK documentation

[superaga]

Hi experts,

I already post over a reply on this topic at this link, but probably went lost inside the old answers, so I rewrite it here.

I'm using the latest MCUXpresso 11.3.0.

I installed the SDK_2.9.0_FRDM-K64F for which I'd like to access to the API documentation.

I can open the SDK Getting started or the Release notes from:

• within the MCUXpresso IDE or
• from the docs folder inside the SDK or
• from the SDK web page

Unfortunately none of the 3 above point me to the SDK documentation. I found "something" just using Google a this address but of course I think there is a better way to access to the official documentation. What is it?

One more, I think that would be very appreciated been able to open the SDK html (exist?!?) from within the MCUXpresso IDE.

Would be also very useful use the context menu over a function to open directly the function doc (I suppose the SDK is done with the Doxygen).

Any help would be very appreciated! Many thanks!

Kind regards,

AGA

Hi AGA,

the link you posted points to a "API Reference Manual" in PDF format.

I think that this PDF document contains information very similar to what is provided on https://mcuxpresso.nxp.com/en/apidoc/  (created from doxygen comments, or so it seems).

Just checked for "MK64FN1M0xxx12" (this might not be exactly your processor) that is to be found here:

https://mcuxpresso.nxp.com/api_doc/dev/2117/

What do you think?

Hi @danielholala,

this is exactly what I was looking for!

In fact this, respect the one that I found (PDF), has more details (since it is generated by the function itself) and also more navigable (because the hyperlinks).

It is a shame that this page (the main or the related to the processor) is not directly accessible from the MCUXpresso IDE, that would be super useful.

I think also that NXP should easily provide this link from the main SDK page. May be it's my mistake, but I couldn't find it...

Many thanks to all!

Regards,

AGA

Hi @danielchen,

many thanks for your answer.

I didn't have the documentation since I installed the SDK from within MCUXpresso IDE (as in this guide).

Is there a way to download it from the IDE?

One suggestion: would be very useful to access the API documentation from the IDE itself, "like the tooltips when hovering the mouse on code".

Best regards,

AGA

Hi @superaga 

Thank you for your good suggestions.

Currently SDK documents are downloaded from mcuxpresso.com .  I also attached API doc here.

I will report your suggestion to the SDK team.

Hi @superaga ;

Please download the SDK documentation from 

https://mcuxpresso.nxp.com/en/welcome

when you download the SDK.
