MODSERIAL missing serial_api.h

Dear all,

I am trying to use MODSSERIAL (https://mbed.org/cookbook/MODSERIAL) in my program. This program used to compile, but when I import the MODSERIAL library and make the required adjustments I get the following error and therefore it won't compile properly:

Compiler Output Error:

Quote:

cannot open source input file "serial_api.h": No such file or directory

I also tried it with the very simple example provided:

#include "mbed.h"
#include "MODSERIAL.h"
MODSERIAL pc(USBTX, USBRX); // tx, rx

int main() {
      pc.printf("Hello World!");
      while(1) {
          pc.putc(pc.getc() + 1);
      }
 }

but this gives me exactly the same result.

The error explanation states that this could mean that the default mbed library is accidentaly removed. But this isn't the case.

Furthermore I have looked for an additional library called 'serial_api' that I might needed to import but I couldn't find anything.

What did I miss to import and use the MODSERIAL library properly?

Much thanks in advance
