The solution was a) to close the project in Eclipse, b) re-open the project and c) re-generate code. It looks there was a glitch in writing that file. This was an entry in the generated ProjectInfo.xml file, while this file did not exist on disk (was not generated). ❗ I had a case where IAR complained about a missing startup.c file. In KDS, create a new project the usual way with the menu File > New > Kinetis Design Studio Project. KDS is free of charge and unlimited, while there is a free IAR version (code size limited to 16 KByte for ARM Cortex-M0+). I’m using Kinetis Design Studio V2.0.0 (KDS) and IAR Embedded Workbench V7.
IAR WORKBENCH ARM HOW TO
The following tutorial shows how to create an ARM Cortex project in Kinetis Design Studio, which then can be compiled and debugged with IAR Embedded Workbench. So why not using one Eclipse instance for both? And indeed, I have found a way to eliminate the need for Processor Expert Driver suite: it is possible to use IAR with the Freescale Kinetis Design Studio (KDS) ? Outline Having two Eclipse versions installed is fine, but not very elegant and uses more disk space than needed. On the other side, many students are using the Freescale Kinetis Design Studio for their lab work too. So far we had to use the Processor Expert Driver Suite v10.4 (see Processor Expert (Driver Suite/Plugins/KDS) V10.4 with new Component Inspector) in Eclipse Kepler. This requires either installing a plugin into an existing Eclipse, or using the standalone Driver Suite Eclipse version. The standard way to use Processor Expert with either Keil or IAR is using the Processor Expert Microcontroller Driver Suite.

We have projects at the university where we used the IAR Embedded Workbench IDE with Processor Expert. For everyone who wants to combine the power of Eclipse and Processor Expert with the IAR Embedded Workbench IDE, here is how to get them working side by side:
