Hi liuqimin‌,

The problem that you encountered is caused by the IAR8.0 folder, which differs a little bit from the version 7.5, the latest IAR version when Kinetis Toolbox was released.

Indeed your compiling issue is related with that COPY CATCH exception from the log.
The Toolbox tries to use the file located in the C:\Program Files (x86)\IAR Systems\Embedded Workbench 8.0\arm\src\lib\write.c but now, in the IAR8.0, the write.c is located here C:\Program Files (x86)\IAR Systems\Embedded Workbench 8.0\arm\src\lib\file\write.c.

This can be solved either by copying the write.c file in the old location (one folder above) or by replacing in the {Kinetis Toolbox install path}src\mctbx_kv5xf\mctbx_kv5xf\mscripts the mcd_kv5xf_copy_required_files.p file attached to this response, obviously after you made a copy of the existing file. 

Please tell us what you tried and if worked. 

I hope this helps, 

Marius

Hi liuqimin‌,

I see 2 issues in the log file:

First the is a copy message error: 

COPY CATCH: ´íÎóʹÓà fileattrib
ϵͳÕÒ²»µ½Ö¸¶¨µÄÎļþ¡£

The second is: 

IAR ELF Linker V8.20.1.14183/W32 for ARM
Copyright 2007-2017 IAR Systems AB.
Error[Li005]: no definition for "__write" [referenced from
putchar.o(dl7M_tln.a)]
7 218 bytes of readonly code memory
710 bytes of readonly data memory
1 068 bytes of readwrite data memory
Errors: 1

Somehow is think they are related. Can you check a file comparison between the generated folders for Kv3 and Kv5 demos to check if you have the same number of files. 

In the mean time we will have a look also over this.

Thank you!

Daniel
