KeyFobDemo Can't be built

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC2540

I m starting with the CC2540/1 Mini DKit and I was hoping to make changes to the KeyFobDemo code in order to review the results. However, unlike other projects, I can't build the KeyFob Demo project. When I open workspaces normally, the files appear on the left side in a group and I can select individual ones. However, when I open the KeyFob folder/workspace no files appear on the left side and just he 4 main .c files appear on the right. Therefore, I can't build the project so any changes that I make won't be updated. Any ideas why?

    Hello Sam,

    Are you using IAR for 8051 v8.20.2 to open KeyFobDemo.ewp? Can you post an IAR screen shot of this condition? Make sure "View-> Workspace" is selected as well.

    Hi,

    I'm using IAR for 8051 v9.20.1. When I open a workspace and go to Projects -> ble -> KeyFob, there are 3 folders : Source , CC2540DB and CC2541DB. Both CC2521DB and CC2540DB contain the same file KeyFobDemo.eww (there is no .ewp option when going to Open->Workspace). When I open up that file, the IAR workbench opens up the 4 main files (KeyFobDemo.c, SimpleBLEPeripheral.c, OSAL_SimpleBLEPeripheral.c and SimpleBLEPeripheral_Main.c) but no other files and the workbench information isn't shown on the left. I've attached a screenshot.

    Hi Sam,

    Note that the BLE v1.4.0 SDK was built/tested with IAR 8.20.2. However, I was able to open & build using IAR 9.10.3, albeit with the IAR project conversion (automatic) and linker file change (manual). I do see the normal KeyFob workspace layout.

    I'm not sure what happened, maybe your EWP file is corrupted. Can you try using another, clean, install of the SDK.

    Thanks! What's strange is that all other projects (SimpleBLEPeripheral for example) work properly and I can edit and build and download using the CC debugger. Any reason why just the KeyFob demo is corrupted?

    Also, when you select Open -> Workspace within IAR, and you move to the folder that you want, should you have options to select ewp files? I was under the impression it was just eww files.

    I'm not sure, it opened correctly in my SDK. Perhaps it was just corrupted from some other means on your setup. Is it working for you now on a clean setup?

    Oops sorry I didn't let you know right away! Yes, it is working properly now. One other questions: Any chance you can check out

    I'm just having some trouble flash programming. Apart from that I should be all set.

    Thanks for your help!
