Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC2511, SIMPLICITI

Hello everyone,

I'm using Texas instruments controller CC2511F32 in my project, and the compiler IAR for 8051 ver. 8.11.1

In my code I have had always an error "Error[e12]: Unable to open .xcl file"

After I have modified the IAR options:

( (menu) Project -> options -> (Category) Debugger -> (tab) setup ->Device Description file: "$TOOLKIT_DIR$\config\devices\_generic\io8051.ddf", with 'Override default' check box selected )
( (menu) Project -> options -> (Category) Linker -> (tab) Config -> in 'Linker configuration file': "$TOOLKIT_DIR$\config\lnk51ew_cc2511.xcl", with 'Override default' check box selected )

Using these options I have now the Error[e12] no more, but now I become new errors of type: Error[e46]: Undefined external "..." referrd in (C:\ ... \Obj\ ... .r51)

Can you please lead me to a solution?

Thank you for your kind help

Hi,

are you trying to compile SimpliciTI project with newer IAR IED? If yes, this might help you:

Thank you Ihend for your kind reply, In my project I'm not using the SimpliciTI, I'm trying to compile a normal program on the CC2511F32 without activating any RF module, and I get now the Error[e46] error, where previously I got Error[e12].

Do you have any Idea, I think there is something should be done on IAR options

Thanks again :)

Hi,

i think the wiki entry above should also apply for non-SimpliciTI projects, basically i think this is a compatibility issue of the old IAR project files with new IAR IDE.

Have you tried?

Hi again Leo,

I have tried the IAR options modification ( The one described in the link you gave me ) but after this I get a new error Error[e46]: Undefined external, referred to Obj\ ... .r51 file

Hi,

can you try to take the default project once again (not with the change 1) and 2) you made above), and then apply the step shown in the wiki?
