requirement of mc56f8367 header files

i am new to embedded programming i like to program a bldc motor with mc56f8367 with IDE

CodeWarrior® Development Studio for 56800/E Digital Signal Controllers (Classic IDE) v8.3 but i m unable to find header files for the particular microcontroller and i am using a 64 bit windows 7 os and there some progress to be taken for the perfect functioning of codewarrior, is there any other version that support 64 bit Windows 7, containing header files or any other way to download header files

Solution
    • Check for updates on that IDE, maybe the device was introduced later. (e.g. "CodeWarrior for MCUs" which got an update to 11.1 last year)
    • Check, if NXP provides some examples or extra libs
    • Check for a more generic header, maybe it has some device specific extensions, depending on some compiler switches (incl the target switch) enabling this code part.
    • You should be able to write such a header or register definitions yourself. It's not so much rocket science but rather tedious work of reading the processor manual and writing the header definitions.
