Statically Linked ELF binaries for TI C6x

Jakub Kaszyk

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CCSTUDIO

Hello,

I was wondering if it possible to output a statically linked elf binary? The Code Generation Tools seem to only have options for dynamically linked.

Cheers,
Kuba

Certainly; the compiler and linker by default create static object files.

Thanks for your reply.

I have just tried what you said - When I run the build tools within CCStudio on a fresh project, none of the files are identified as an ELF executable, statically linked (using the 'file' command). All of them are data, text, and xml.

Am I missing something..?

When I start playing around with the options, for example using --linux, I get a dynamically linked ELF executable.

What I'm looking for is a way to build a statically linked ELF executable.

Cheers,
Kuba

By default, C6000 executables are static COFF executables. You need to use EABI. The --linux option implies both --abi=eabi and --dynamic, and you do not want --dynamic.
