Hi,
I'm using S32 Design Studio 3.4 with the S32K1xx SDK RTM 4.0.1 for the S32K142.
I'm facing an issue where the .mex file and ConfigTools (Pins/Clocks/Peripherals) no longer open.
What happens:
- Double-clicking the .mex file does nothing.
- ConfigTools → Pins also does nothing.
- Once, the .mex editor opened correctly and I could see the Pins view, chip package, and peripherals, but after clicking OK, it never opened again.
- This happens even in a new workspace
I have already tried:
- Creating a new workspace.
- Importing the project again.
- Updating the S32 Design Studio Platform Tools package.
- Selecting S32 Configuration Tools as the editor for .mex.
- Restarting S32DS.
The project builds correctly, but the Configuration Tools editor never opens.
Has anyone seen this issue before? Is this caused by an SDK installation problem, corrupted Config Tools, or a workspace issue?
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Hi @VaneB,
Thank you for your reply.
I installed S32K1xx SDK RTM 4.0.3 in S32 Design Studio 3.4 and created a new Hello project using the 4.0.3 SDK (not an imported project).
The project builds correctly, but the .mex file still does not open in the Configuration Tools editor.
When I double-click the .mex file, I can select S32 Configuration Tools as the editor, but after clicking OK, nothing happens.
I also verified that the Configuration Tools plugins (Pins Tool, Clocks Tool, Peripherals Tool, Framework, etc.) are installed.
Could you please advise what else I should check? Is there a known issue with the Configuration Tools editor not opening in S32DS 3.4?
Thank you.
Please note that S32K1xx SDK RTM 4.0.1 is not compatible with S32DS 3.4. For IDE version, the supported SDK versions are S32K1xx SDK RTM 4.0.2 and 4.0.3.
Based on the error, it looks like the IDE cannot find the SDK path. This can happen if the SDK is not installed, the project was imported, or the SDK location configured in the project does not match the SDK installed on your machine.
BR, VaneB
If you access any of the ConfigTools tools, are you able to see and select the project you created from the drop-down list?
