MCUXpress SDK 11.2.0 breaks ConfigTool configuration file in my KW38 project

[FedericoWegher]

Hello.

I had been using MCUXpresso 11.1.x and SDK 2.6.5 with ConfigTool for a KW38 project. The project is using ConfigTool for pin muxing.

Everything had worked fine until I moved to MCUXpresso 11.2.0. Now, when I open my project or select ConfigTool perspective, I get the following dialog error message:

"Processor MKW38A512xxx4, ksdk2_0 version is not supported by current version of the tool"

The problem is not in my configuration file. It can be easily reproduced with any example from SDK, in slightly different form since examples do not have .mex ConfigTool files. Procedure is:

1. import an SDK example, like temperature sensor
2. open ConfigTool perspective
3. verify that "MCU is not select" error message occurs in the tool bar, and the list of available processor is empty

I verified the problem is present also with SDK 2.6.6. So I think the problem was introduced in MXUXpresso 11.2.0.

Thank you

MCUXpresso v11.3.0 fixes the problem.

I am using it together with SDK 2.6.9.

Thank you for resolution of problem.

Best regards,

Federico

Hi,

Yeah. The latest mcuxpresso doesn't support old version sdk. It will cause many problems. You have to install the latest sdk.

Have a great day,

Can you please clarify which versions of what I should use?

I am using SDK v2.6.6 and IDE v11.2.0. I see today 2.6.7 was released, so 2.6.6 is not that old ;-).

Thank you,

Federico

Hi,

Use your IDE to download the sdk. It will show the latest version.;-)

Just tried it - doesn´t work.

I tested it with both available SDKs(2.6.9) for the KW38A downloaded from inside the IDE.

"Processor ´MKW38A512xxx4´is not supported or data for processor not available"

Any ideas?

I confirm latest SDKs 2.6.7, 2.6.8 and 2.6.9 have the same problem.

Waiting for NXP to comment. Thanks.

I opened a Case about this, here is the answer:

I checked the issue that you are facing. I double-checked with the development team.
Currently, the device is not supported for the online and the IDE config tools.
Sorry for any inconvenience that this may cause you.

To update this case, you may reply by email.
