c67xfastMath.lib: expsp.obj is partly in unspecified "text" section

Les Perry,

That last line you list with (text) is what causes your warning, and it needs to be fixed. Unfortunately, it may be a typo in one of our files. When I did a search for files named expsp.asm on my PC, I found that it has a line in the file that says ".sect text" where it should be either ".sect .text" or simply ".text".

You are correct to avoid making direct edits to the DSP/BIOS-generated linker .cmd file.

You have two choices how to solve this:

1. The "right" way is to edit the file and rebuild the library so it will not try to create a section named text, but this is requires an understanding of how to re-build the library. This should be explained well enough in the User's Guide for the library, but it always worries me a little to do something like that.

2. The "easy" way is to create a second linker command file to tell the linker where to put the "text" section:

textsect.cmd said:

SECTIONS
{
    text > L2SRAM /* or whatever the name is that goes with ".text" in the DSP/BIOS-generated linker command file */
}

Create this file in your Project folder and CCSv4 will automatically use it in addition to your other .cmd file.
