If that's the code that you're actually running, note that you haven't enabled any UART - you've commented that out!

It always pays to tidy-up your code before posting to a forum - lots of commented-out lines just confuse the issue, and make people less inclined to look at it.

Also, include links between your cross-posts in multiple forums - so that people can see the whole discussion, and not waste time repeating what has already been said in another forum of which they weren't aware...

But do be sure that you have compiled & tested the "tidied-up" code before posting it!

To adapt a well-known saying, "Post what you fly, and fly what you post!"

Sorry Andy... Good remark.

I just have tried many, many things over the weekend, but the situation is still the same.

As for the example in StellarisWare for the other board, it won't compile.

I checked each option as best as I could, still couldn't figure it out.

As for the other post...

When I was explained that the code posted there should, in theory, work - at least on a board - then I thought posting to the Keil Web site may be more productive. Perhaps someone out there knows the simulator sufficiently to point me in the right direction.

Is that person you?

Also, here is my build output. I turned on all the warnings.

Build target 'Target 1'
assembling Startup.s...

compiling main.c...

"HelloWorld.axf" - 0 Error(s), 0 Warning(s).

Not sure if this is helpful. Just says what I am linking and that there is no error of any kind.

Hi,

a hint for the LMI devices:

Debug your application, and set a Breakpoint in the Fault handlers, especially the Hard Fault Handler.
LMI goes there if
- a peripheral is writte / read which is not clocked
- a peripheral is clock enabled but still not ready (not enough __nop() between clkEnable and the first write)

Helps a lot!

BR,
/th.

sorry for second post ... I forgot:

there is the CMSIS out, which has an ITM_Sendchar - function. This can be used to retarget fputc i.e., and printf debug messages to the printf viewer (see View -> Serial Windows).

BR,
/th.
