PSoC™ Creator & Designer Forum Discussions

We're trying to create a single project template that can run on multiple machines and reference a set of common libraries without requiring manual intervention to set dozens of include paths on every machine individually. The ideal solution is to simply have each user create an environment variable with the same name that points to the library parent directory for their specific machine.  

Is there a way to pass a system environment variable as an include path to the ARM-GCC compiler when it is invoked via PSoC Creator? From the command line I can just run

arm-none-eabi-gcc -I%MY_PATH% main.c

This evaluates just fine, however when invoked from within PSoC Creator MY_PATH does not get evaluated (I have verified that it does exist within the environment of the application). My guess is that it's something to do with the way in which PSoC Creator is spawning the app, it's not simply invoking a command line and it's passing the variable as a literal.

Alternatively is there a way to manually create a custom PSoC Creator build macro which does get evaluated before being passed to the compiler? (Such as ${OutputDir}, ${WorkspaceDir} etc.) 

For reference setting C_INCLUDE_PATH as a system variable does work but it's not ideal as it will also pull those include directories into every other unrelated project built using any GCC version.

How do you find and download Lesson6 Android  app that works with

the Capsense program that works with the CY8CKIT pioneer kit.

I want to see if I can get that program working on the Android studio ?

I am an end user and some years ago my developer installed PSOC on my computer so I could go into control C and adjust various parameters

My computer has died and I want to install creator back on my new laptop so that I can open the programs I have saved and edit them again

I just need a bit of direction on which version to install and get it setup, Would I just be able to use the latest version?

Dear Community Member,

(as I didn't find a solution here, I've written one and share it)

Please,  find my attached sample code for NO polling, interrupt based Martix 4x4 keypad.

Background: most of our projects the the focus is on analog and real-time processing, so I would always feel uncomfortable if a device used in a very small time slot -like a 4x4 matrix keyboard- used up valuable CPU time.

This sample code is interrupt based (the key pad pins is only 'watching', no CPU time needed at this stage).

The user key press event give a trigger for this watching state to CPU start working.

Very simple logic behind of that:
1.)
-matrix keypad COLUMN (input digital) pins setted to HIGH,
-matrix keypad ROW (input digital) pins setted to resistive pull-down mode, pluss a rising edge interrupt service routine attached to row pins.
This is the watcher / idle state.
2.) if any key pressed, the rising edge interrupt service routine TRIGGERED by row pins.
3.) After an adjustable debouncing periode the columns and correcponding row pins are scanned: the pushed key found.

Tested with the following 4x4 matrix membran keypad:

with CyKit-059.

Thanks for the feedback,

Have nice day,
