Hi there,

You can open your Mbed OS LPC1768 project in CLion by exporting your project to the CMake-GCC-ARM toolchain within the online compiler or Mbed CLI. For example, import the mbed-os-example-blinky project into your online compiler. Make sure you have selected the LPC1768 as your target in the top right hand corner. If you do not see the LPC1768, add it to your online compiler from it's board page here.

Then, right click on your project's name in the online compiler and select "Export program...". Then make sure your export target is the LPC1768 and your export toolchain is "CMake-GCC-ARM". Then click "Export" and download the .zip file to your computer.

You will need to have the GCC ARM toolchain installed to your computer: https://developer.arm.com/open-source/gnu-toolchain/gnu-rm

Extract the .zip file somewhere on your computer. Then open up CLion and create a new project by "Import Project from Sources" and select the extracted Mbed OS project folder on your computer. Make sure you do not let CLion override your existing CMakeLists.txt file.

You may need to add full directory paths to your cmake compilers in the CMakeLists.txt file, for example these paths look like the following on my Macbook on line 15 of the CMakeLists.txt file:

SET(CMAKE_ASM_COMPILER    "/Users/jenplu01/opt/gcc-arm-none-eabi-7-2017-q4-major/bin/arm-none-eabi-gcc")
SET(CMAKE_C_COMPILER      "/Users/jenplu01/opt/gcc-arm-none-eabi-7-2017-q4-major/bin/arm-none-eabi-gcc")
SET(CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER    "/Users/jenplu01/opt/gcc-arm-none-eabi-7-2017-q4-major/bin/arm-none-eabi-g++")
SET(ELF2BIN               "/Users/jenplu01/opt/gcc-arm-none-eabi-7-2017-q4-major/bin/arm-none-eabi-objcopy")

Please let me know if you have any questions!
