Cannot open IPCF project in S32 Design studio.

[Somasundaram_Vadivelu]

Hi all,

I am having issues opening IPCF project from the S32 Design studio. I installed the package SW32XX-IPCF-EAR_0.8.8.exe in c:/NXP/S32DS.3.2/S32DS/software/S32SDK_S32G_EAR_0.8.0, as mentioned in the user manual. But I couldn't find ipcf_s32g274a in (File->New->S32DS Project from Example). Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Hello @Somasundaram_Vadivelu ,

It seems that there is already a newer version of this IPCF package:

Take the file IPCF_1.1.0_D2012_updatesite.zip:

It has more complete S32 Design Studio integration and uses the latest version of S32DS 3.3

From S32_IPCF_1_1_0_D2012_ReleaseNotes.txt:

Hope it helps,

Mike

Hi,

Thanks for the reply. I tried the mentioned way and now I can see the IPCF project in the example. But there is a problem when I build the IPCF sample project (IPCF_Example_S32G274).
I get quite some errors (Image attached to this post). Could it be due to missing SDK for S32G (Product Software Development Kit for Cortex-M)? Any help would be appreciable.

Hi, 

it looks that you don't have properly set Include path for IPCF header files:

Hi,

Thanks for the response. It seems I have all the required includes.

Hello,

It seems you need to generate the code from the S32 Configuration Tool first.

1) Right click on 'IPCF_Example_S32G274A.mex', then select S32 Configuration Tool and select any of the tools to load the S32 Configuration Tools perspectives.

2) Normally you would now click on 'Update Code' in the toolbar at the top, but there is an error. You must first go to the Peripherals Tool perspective and look in the Problems view. Right click on the listed problem and Add the driver listed.

3) Now you can click 'Update Code', then go back to the C/C++ perspective.

4) Build the project.

This worked for me. I got only 2 warnings (some project setting not matching project name and a folder in the include path does not exist)

Hope it helps,

Mike

Hi,

Thanks and I really appreciate the fast response.
I tried to select any one of the tools from S32 Configuration Tool option but I get this error pop up.

I use S32DS 3.4 version.

Hi,

I used S32DS 3.3, as this is the version of S32 Design Studio which is listed as supported in the release notes for the IPCF example. I suggest you stay with 3.3 ,for now. The IPCF example was not updated to use the SW32 RTD 4.4 v1.0.0 (this is the only version of the RTD that is supported by S32DS 3.4). Again from the release notes for the IPCF example, it specifically states the SW32 RTD 4.4 v0.9.0 is what is supported.

Best Regards,

Mike
