Can the Zephyr project name be changed to another name?

[bingbingbian]

I tried to change it to another name, but when importing samples, the [mcux_include.json] ZEPHYR_BASE is defaulted to d:/xxxx/xxxx/zephyr. Is there a place to modify this configuration? Thank you.

Hi @bingbingbian,

Not sure we understand what you are trying to achieve.

• Are you trying to import a sample from another Zephyr repository than the one that is pointed in ZEPHYR_BASE of an existing project? If this is the case, I suppose you already have somewhere on disk the “second” Zephyr repository from where you are trying to import samples. In this case, go to Quickstart Panel -> Import Repository -> Local and provide the location of the “second” zephyr repo. Then this new one will have a new entry in “Installed Repository” so you can select it and import samples of it.
• If you want to associate an already created application to another Zephyr repository, you can do that by following the steps here: https://github.com/nxp-mcuxpresso/vscode-for-mcux/wiki/Working-with-Zephyr#changing-the-associated-repository-for-an-existing-project
• Is the problem that the ZEPHYR_BASE variable form mcux_include.json is updated automatically to point to the “zephyr” subfolder? If this is the case, currently this is a hard-coded assumption in the extension that the ZEPHYR_BASE points to {associate_repository_path}/zephyr. Is there a use case where this is an incorrect assumption?

Thanks, Dragos.
