GFX 4.23.1; Keil MDK 5.36: error: #5: cannot open source input file "portmacro.h"

[ferro]

Hello,

GFX 4.23.1 comes with this example project

en.X-CUBE-TOUCHGFX.4.23.1\Projects\STM32F746G-DISCO

I use Keil MDK 5.36. During compilation I get this error:

compiling SoftwareMJPEGDecoder.cpp...
../Middlewares/Third_Party/FreeRTOS/Source/include/portable.h(52): error:  #5: cannot open source input file "portmacro.h": No such file or directory

Any idea how to fix missing portmacro.h error please ?

Thank you

Is it actually missing, or is the compiler just not finding it?

The latter would indicate a problem with your Include Paths ...

I am not sure. This is what portable.h says on line 52:

There are 2 portmacros.h in the project:

DynamicGraph\Middlewares\Third_Party\FreeRTOS\Source\portable\IAR\ARM_CM7\r0p1\portmacro.h
DynamicGraph\gcc\Middlewares\Third_Party\FreeRTOS\Source\portable\GCC\ARM_CM7\r0p1\portmacro.h

Should there be a portmacro.h for Keil toolchain perhaps ?

I am not sure.

Well that's the first thing to check!

[ferro]

As I said, there are 2 but probably not ported to Keil ? That's for GFX Team to answer i suppose.

[Andrew Neil]

Your earlier post suggests it's a FreeRTOS thing? So not specific to GFX?

FreeRTOS is very widely used, so shouldn't be hard to find a suitable Keil version?

Thank you @Andrew Neil 

1. Install FreeRTOS package from Keil Package installer

2. copy files port.c and portmacro.h from

c:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Arm\Packs\ARM\CMSIS-FreeRTOS\10.5.1\Source\portable\RVDS\ARM_CM7\r0p1\

into

STM32F746G-DISCO\Applications\DynamicGraph\Middlewares\Third_Party\FreeRTOS\Source\portable\RVDS\ARM_CM7\r0p1\
