Hi, Tarun! Did you fix it?
I was having the same problem today but managed to solve it by changing the code order seen in the tutorial, as follows:

<tools>

  <!-- PC-lint - http://www.gimpel.com/html/pcl.htm -->

  <if host_os="win">
    <item name="Tool.PClint">
      <menu>&PC-lint (Unit Check)</menu>
      <text>PC-lint (Unit Check)</text>
      <tip>Run a PC-lint unit checkout on the selected file or folder</tip>
      <key>Ctrl+L, Ctrl+P</key>
      <match>*.c;*.cpp</match>
      <message>Linting</message>
      <commands>
        "$(LINTDIR)/lint-nt" -v -incvar(__CW_ARM) -i$(LINTDIR)/lnt co-gcc.lnt $(DEFINES) $(INCLUDES) -D__GNUC__ -u -b +macros +macros -w2 -e537 +fie +ffn -width(0,4) -hF1 "-format=%f:%l:%C:\s%t:\s%m [-e%n]" "$(InputPath)"
      </commands>
    </item>


  </if>
    <item name="Tool.CMSIS_Config_Wizard" wait="no">
        <menu>&CMSIS Configuration Wizard</menu>
        <text>CMSIS Configuration Wizard</text>
        <tip>Open a configuration file in CMSIS Configuration Wizard</tip>
        <key>Ctrl+Y</key>
        <match>*config*.h</match>
        <message>CMSIS Config</message>
        <commands>
          java -jar "$(CMSIS_CONFIG_TOOL)" "$(InputPath)"
        </commands>
    </item>
</tools>

Was there a resolution to this issue? I am running into similar problem and cannot seem to determine a fix.

I followed the same exact video and tried everything said in this forum and I am still not able to get the configuration widow to pop up

Patrik,

I followed the path and found the jar file for CMSIS. I double clicked on it and navigated to open the sdk_config.h file in my project. Here is a snapshot. Also, here is the link in the Project Macros: Interesting that it is marked modified - I guess by my initialization of the tool earlier.

The last thing on my mind is. Try to check: right click the project in Project Explorer. Select Common Configuration. Then in the build section ->Project Macros -> here you should have macro CMSIS_CONFIG_TOOL= "here the path to the CMSIS_Configuration_Wizard.jar". Mine looks like: CMSIS_CONFIG_TOOL=$(SDK_ROOT:../../../../nRF5_SDK_15.2.0_9412b96)/external_tools/cmsisconfig/CMSIS_Configuration_Wizard.jar. That means you also have to check, if you have in the external_tools this CMSIS configurator wizard. If not, download from https://sourceforge.net/projects/cmsisconfig/ and edit the macro. Hope that helps

This is what the Nordic training video shows:

GaryD — Tue, 23 Apr 2019 00:15:27 GMT

On the output panel of the IDE, messages showing the steps in CMSIS processing appear just at the Nordic training video shows. However, the CMSIS window with all of the configuration categories does not pop up - nothing shows up. Here is the Output panel. After I click on the drop down menu to use the CMSIS wizard, these messages show up but no working window to update the config parameters.

What did you mean with "I get the messages (like in the video)"?

I have also rebooted my entire laptop.

strange, because I copy pasted your xml file and it is working for me. Do you have installed java?

GaryD — Mon, 22 Apr 2019 16:14:21 GMT

Great =thanks for the quick update - I now get the item in the menu after rebooting the IDE. However, when I right click on the sdk_config.h, I do not get the window with the selections to edit. I get the messages (like in the video) but no window to graphically edit the config file.

CMSIS Config
CMSIS Config sdk_config.h
Finished CMSIS Config

Hi GaryD,

in the xml you missed to end the first item section.

<item name="Tool.PClint"> //You begin the item with this line

.....

....

</commands>

</item> //you end the item with this line --> THIS IS MISSING IN YOUR XML

<item name="Tool.CMSIS_Config_Wizard" wait="no"> //here goes the next new item

......

</item>

Add that one line, restart the IDE and it should work.
