  • [SOLVED] Change project to external toolchain

    Hello,

    I would like to change the settings of an existing project to use an external toolchain (GNU Arm Embedded Toolchain - 10 2020-q4-major). I found this link but don't want to create a new project. Is there any "easy" way for this?

    Thanks and best regards
    Christoph
  • Hello Christoph,

    Thank you for your inquiry.
    You can create a new project within your current solution.
    Simply go to File->New Project->Add the project to the current solution
    From then on it should be just like the Wiki article.

    Best regards,
    Nino

  • Hello,

    thanks for your answer. Yes, I've seen that I can create a new project in the current solution, but I want to change the settings of an existing project without creating a new one. Is this not possible within SES???
  • Hi,

    you can of course create also a new build config in your current project and set up the external toolchain.
    For example Debug_External.
    Next set the project option Build->Project Type->Externally Build Executable

    Now you need to set up your tool chain path, and the corresponding compiler, assembler and linker command line options.

    Best regards,
    Nino
