Adding existing source files to project

[RHerm.3]

We are porting an existing vxWorks project to STM32. I am able to import the existing source files into a STM project, but I cannot get it to compile any of the files.

I have tried a variety of project types and always refresh the project after adding the files.

Please provide or point me to instructions for doing this.

BTW - I can successfully import examples, build and run them on a eval board.

Put them in a folder where other source files are. Typically, this is in Core/Src.

You can put them in a separate folder, but then you need to mark it as a source folder so they get compiled.

Header files can go anywhere in the include path. Typically, this is in Core/Inc.

@TDK​ is right.

@RHerm.3​ If aiming to add your own folder instead Core/.... let's rely on project contextual menu to add source entry(ies)

 

 Small "C" green overlay icon should appear as your new included folder decoration

Thank you TDK & Cartu38 - now I can import existing C files into the project and build them.
