CCS c5.2.0 linker warnings "compatibility cannot be determined"

Hi!

I just installed the newest version of CCSv5 with the newest code generation tools for c2000 (6.1.0). Then I tried to compile a project (F28335) and got a lot of warnings because of the old flash api library I use. Hence, I immediately downloaded Control Suite and installed it. But the library file of the flash api is still version 2.10 and the same as in the year 2008. And the linker tells for each function I use:

warning: build attribute vendor section TI missing in
   "../lib/Flash28335_API_V210/lib/Flash28335_API_V210.lib<Flash28_Erase.obj>":
   compatibility cannot be determined

When will a new and compatible version be available? Until then I have to live with the warnings, or what can I do?

Best regards
Edwin Krasser

    It can be ignored.  Please see 

    http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/C28x_Compiler_Error_and_Warning_Messages#Warning:_build_attribute_vendor_section_TI_missing_in_.22.3Clibrary_or_object.3E_:_compatibility_cannot_be_determined

    for more information.

  • Hi!

    This is what I already know because I read the wiki too: Just ignore the warnings. But: I prefer to have no warnings in my software developments.

    So I suggest to update the flash api to get rid of these warnings. When will the compatible library be available?

    The flash API goes through a lot of testing involving read/write qualification and use in our own production testing.  Due to this we will not be able to build it with a newer compiler. 

    Thank you
