Project conversion in Keil Studio

  1. In VS Code, go to File - Open Folder and select the folder containing the uvprojx file (here Blinky.uvprojx).

  2. Once the folder is open in VS Code, right-click the uvprojx file and select Convert µVision project to csolution:

    Image Alt Text:Convert project

  3. The following files (and more) are generated:

    • Blinky.csolution.yaml
    • Blinky.cproject.yaml
    • vcpkg-configuration.json
  4. The Output window shows a successful conversion:

    Image Alt Text:Successful conversion

  5. The vcpkg configuration file is automatically activated. You notice a couple of “Arm Tools” available in the Status Bar at the bottom:

    Image Alt Text:vcpkg activated

  6. Click on the CMSIS icon in the Activity Bar to open the CMSIS View. At the top, click on the hammer icon to build the project:

    Image Alt Text:CMSIS build

  7. The cbuild task starts. A successful project build will end with:

        
    
            
            Program size: Code=... RO-data=... RW-data=... ZI-data=...
    info cbuild: build finished successfully!
    Build complete
