Not sure how useful this code example will be, it is posted in or around 2014.  Hard to read on the NXP forum due to some funky formatting:

Not sure how useful this code example will be, it is posted in or around 2014. Hard to read on the NXP forum due to some funky formatting:

int main(int argc, const char *argv[])
