Peripheral Library

That's what I do - selectively add the source files from ST to my project. It's easy to end up with a mix of headers from Keil and ST so make sure the include path is set to the ST peripheral lib.

Easiest way to start is with the examples from ST. There's some instructions how to compile them for Keil MDK in the template folder and each example has a README.

Thanks Guys,

i finally can compile my project again ;)

For all with the same problem:
I took the template project from ST which comes with the library and deleted everything which is not necessary (all the stuff for the eval boards).

Is it complicated to build a .LIB-file out of the sources? Compiling all the C sources takes quite some time... With the LIB file it took about 1 second to compile, now it's about 50 seconds (right now i've all files included).

Kind regards
Hans

Shouldn't be too hard to create a library once you have all the object files you want. The tool is C:\Keil\ARM\BIN40\armar.exe and it's documented (poorly) under the "RealView Utilites Guide". There's also a section "Create a Library File" in the uVision IDE User's Guide that explains how to do it from the IDE.

It's probably easier to just use the commandline, though. If you type in armar without arguments you'll get a brief help.

Here's the real documentation on ARM's website:

So don't do that, then!

Compile only the sources that you actually need.

You shouldn't be changing these files, so they shouldn't need rebuilding often...
