MBed Pin Functionality Bizarre
I am having some very fundamental issues with the MBed and I don't understand why. I am using the NXP LPC1768. When I run example 1 the boards works fine. When I run example 2 the myled pin just stays stuck in high at 3V3. Note the only change between the two snippets is how I define the myled pin. Using the MBed pin names or using the micro pin names I found in the PinNames.h file. There is nothing attached to the MBed other than a usb cable and the oscilloscope I use to monitor the pin. Can anyone advise?
Example 1
#include "mbed.h"
DigitalOut myled(P0_1);
int main() {
while(1) {
myled = 1;
wait(0.2);
myled = 0;
wait(0.2);
}
}
Example 2
#include "mbed.h"
DigitalOut myled(p10);
int main() {
while(1) {
myled = 1;
wait(0.2);
myled = 0;
wait(0.2);
}
}

Well an easier one than your last one ;). They are not the same pins: http://developer.mbed.org/users/mbed_official/code/mbed-src/file/5c73c3744533/targets/hal/TARGET_NXP/TARGET_LPC176X/TARGET_MBED_LPC1768/PinNames.h
Specifically:
p9 = P0_0,
p10 = P0_1,
Hi Erik. that was a careless typo on my end when I was typing it up here..one should never code past midnight. I updated the code now...however now neither seems to work. Regardless of what I do the pins seem stuck in logic high.

So make sure that it is indeed p10 where you are measuring. And on a related note, then also make sure in your I2C problem you are measuring on correct pins and have pull ups on correct pins ;).
