In this post, I propose a CMake script for NXP MCXN326 controller. Not dependent on MCUXpresso's IDE or VS Code extension. Also independent of dev board definitions and SDK example code files.
Prerequisites: What do you need:

A few days ago, I created a PID controller implementation, for a TI MSPM0 device. Without using floating point arithmetic. It used the TI IQMath lib to perform PID algorithm. All calculations are done using ARM intege...

You can handle MSPM0 interrupts via the traditional service request handler. But it also has a messaging system. With message handlers, you can route notifications from one peripheral to another.
In this example: react on a button click and togg...

You can use C++ for MSPM0 designs. There's one watch-out: if you have your event handlers in a .cpp file, you have to wrap those functions in an extern "C" {} wrapper.
The SysConfig mechanism expect that the handlers have a particular name. ...
