[moved] Read, Write using file demo example code for lpc4357 in keil version5

the filesystem APIs like 'fopen' 'fread' 'fwrite' are not working.

Functions as these have return codes, giving you some indication of the error.

Yes, the return values of the function are given bellow as an example


Here the myfile is giving NULL.

And while I am not able to open any file, it going to Hard fault while using read or write instruction.

When I use mkdir to create a directory, I get a return value which implies the operation is not supported.

Once you have the whole source code of the API and since the LPC4357 supports JTAG debugging, I would go deep into the inner function(s) that is called by fopen and take their return codes. I see no shortcut to find the root cause of the problem that not diving and printing out the result of each function comparing expected and actual results.

I agree, but the problem is I cannot dig inside the fopen or any other file APIs, I think Keil itself is restricting the action. I can only get the return code. And also have no idea how these file APIs are pointing to the drivers. The File configuration file itself doesn't provide sufficient information as it comes with direct sections using the configuration wizard facility of Keil.

Can you tell me where I can learn these file management APIs, linking to the driver? Also, how do I understand these standard libraries linking to the low-level drivers? As I was able to read- write directly to the memory, but it has become more like an EEPROM.

Let me know the same thing with any network protocols because it is having the same story, Directly using Network APIs provided by Keil works for me but I have no understanding of how low-level interacts with the higher layer of the protocol.

Thank you

Can anyone suggest a few reference manuals to understand the in-depth Embedded File system and FAT and Network protocols? It would be a great help.

Thank you.
