How to add a target platform?

Hi there,

I am trying out the FRDM-MKL46Z4 board, and those library files could be found in the mbed-src. My question is: How to let the mbed online compiler recognize this board by using mbed-src?

Thanks in advance.

With kind regards,

jppang

Hello JP PANG,

I wrote you in your notepad (also shared my branch on github), that these source files for KL46 are not correct. This board is far from a ready state thus can't be enabled yet. This leaves you to use github repo and GCC and KEIL offline compiling.

Hi Martin,

Many thanks! I just wondering how to use those libraries of mbed-src to compile an un-supported platform by using the online compiler.

With kind regards,

Hi JP,

At the moment, we tend to only add support for additional platforms once the SDK is in place.

However, I can imagine adding them to the Compiler earlier to allow development and testing of the SDK itself, but we'd want to make sure we could highlight that support wasn't all in place yet else people would have false expectations. So I think that is a future option we might want to consider, but for now it won't go live until we're ready.

Hope that helps!

Hi Simon,

Thanks for your comment. I know I tried this board out at my own risk.

Mbed is a great tool! Thanks for all those efforts on this tool by mbed's staff.

With kind regards,
