How to specify compiler path for CMake in VSCode for Mbed-CE projects?

Mbed OS

Hi,

I have been trying to get VSCode/CMake to work with Mbed-CE on Windows 11. It seems I have got very close but not quite there yet.

I cloned Mbed CE Custom Targets Example project, and followed instructions here as close as I can, but still seem unable to get it to work.

The error message I get is like this:

[cmake] CMake Error at mbed-os/tools/cmake/app.cmake:55 (enable_language):
[cmake]   Running
[cmake] 
[cmake]    'nmake' '-?'
[cmake] 
[cmake]   failed with:
[cmake] 
[cmake]    no such file or directory
[cmake] Call Stack (most recent call first):
[cmake]   CMakeLists.txt:32 (include)
[cmake] 
[cmake] 
[cmake] -- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!

This seems to mean that no compiler can be found. I tried to set the path for GCC_ARM compiler in VSCode as in the following screenshot:

This doesn’t seem to help.

Can someone advise on what I am missing/did wrong here?

Thanks,

Hello, if everything is set correctly, Cmake will find it automatically

You can check video guide - MbedCE - YouTube
