Problem Description

I recently found a problem when using MDK5. Let's take a look at the existing MDK version information:



When opening an MDK4 version project with MDK5, a window "Using an MDK Version 4 Project" will usually pop up:


This is an MDK version 4 project ,require Device support for Cortex-M based devices.




Solution

Two solutions are prompted in this window: Migrate to Device Pack and Install Legacy Support.


I tried the first method first. After entering, I checked the devices that could be found, but when I compiled, many errors were reported. 


So choose the second method to install Legacy support for ARM Cortex-M devices.


MDK Version 5 uses Software Packs to support a microcontroller device and to use middleware. To maintain backward compatibility with MDK Version 4 you may install Legacy Support. This might be necessary for two reasons:


To maintain projects created with MDK Version 4 without migrating to Software Packs.

To use older devices that are not supported by a Device Family Pack.

Attached first: MDK5 compatible with MDK4 support package download link


After opening the webpage, click the download link on the left, as shown below:

Download the compatibility package shown above and install it directly to your MDK5 installation directory.
