Path problem with MQX 3.7.0 with CW 2.7.1

[blake_genes]

I installed MQX version 3.7.0, and CodeWarrior version 2.7.1 (eval version).

If I make a bare-metal project to blink some lights, everything works great.

When I create a new project using MQX Stationary, I get a "Project Messages" dialog with a whole bunch of  errors.  The errors are:

User defined root 'MQX_PATH' cannot be found

The following access path in target "Int Flash Release" of project "mqx1.mcp" cannot be found:

{MQX_PATH}lib\m52259evb.cw\mfs

and on and on about 50 times, once for each file it cannot find.

This behavior happens even when I try to load a project created under CW 2.7.0.  The project loads fine under 2.7.0, but gives these error messages with 2.7.1.

Any ideas?

Replying to my own message.

You have to rebuild the MQX libraries for your board in CW 7.2.  The libraries are pre-built for CW10.1, but not CW7.2.

On a related note, does anyone know where I can find stationery for CW 7.2 to create a basic MQX project for TWR-MCF5225X?  Its so tedious to manually define all the locations for all the targets in a project.

My CodeWarrior ColdFire 7.2 directory has no stationery.  I have other CodeWarriors installed, and found some MQX stationery under my CodeWarrior MCU 6.3 installation.  I believe the Freescale MQX 3.7 unstaller got confused under these conditions (multiple CodeWarriors) and put some stationery in the wrong place.  Or I got confused somehow.  But as it is, there is only stationery for older processors, and none for MCF5225X.  I hesitate to erase stuff and start installations over.

Is there some web location where I can download basic MQX 3.7 stationery for CWCF 7.2 MCF5225X?

To answer my own question, fortunately TWR-MCP52259 stationery can be found in the MQX directory:

C:\Program Files\Freescale\Freescale MQX 3.7\tools\codewarrior_extensions\CodeWarrior for ColdFire V7.2\Stationery

I copied the entire Stationery directory and moved it where CodeWarror can find it when it runs:

C:\Program Files\Freescale\CodeWarrior for ColdFire V7.2\Stationery
