error in compiling mbed in keil uvision4

for the first time i want to use mbed library in my project on LPC1768, actually i want to run OV7670 Camera module, so in main program i have to include "mbed.h" and i have copy other header file in main folder of my project on keil4. i faced some error and i had solve them, but the i had face the above error for FileHandle.h and DirHandle.h and also Base.h and also other error that related to these header file. i don' whether it's a good idea to list them down here or not, but i list them here. I use Keil4 for this project.

Hi Mahdi,

Keil Uvision 4 is used for compiling C code, however namespace is a C++ keyword so that's why you have this problem.

You must use mbed export to create keil project for your building. You can refer here https://os.mbed.com/docs/mbed-os/v5.11/tools/exporting.html.
