LInker warnings

Peter,

Are you builiding within CCS?  Was this project previously working before without the remarks?  If this is a project that came from a previous SYSBIOS, XDCTOOLS version, did you try cleaning the project before rebuilding it with the new tools?

Judah

Building with CCS (4.2.4.00033).

I tried a full clean within CCS, and also closing CCS and manually deleting all the release directories and BIOS generated directories.

I'm pretty sure it built without the warnings a few days ago; the most recent changes I recall making in the BIOS area were to set the build profile to "Release" instead of "whole_program" to avoid those warnings.

To me the remark is suggesting that generated object file from the *.cfg file (mybios_p674.o674) is not being built with the right profile.

It appears to me like perhaps this file is old?  One suggestion would be to create a new project and just copy all your sources to the new project?

I've just created a BIOS project with almost exact versions of all your tools [except my compiler is newer v7.2] and I don't get this remark.

Judah

The CFG file isn't old; I've also manually deleted the generated directories (Default and Src) that the tools build.

The full .CFG file is:

var MyBoard_Platform = xdc.useModule('MyBoard.Platform');

MyBoard is my hardware's RTSC configuration

Peter,

I took your .cfg file above, commented out a few lines that didn't apply to me and rebuilt a new BIOS example in release profile and it worked fine for me.

At this point, may I suggest copying your sources files to another directory and create a new project with it there?  The error looks like a result of changing your profile.

You might also want to comment out the following line to see what happens: "ti_sysbios_BIOS.libType = ti_sysbios_BIOS.LibType_Custom;"

Judah

if I comment out the libType line I get the errors:

gmake: *** [configPkg/linker.cmd] Error 1

I will try creating new projects and coping the files into them and then set all the build properties, etc.  That will take some time.

Peter

Creating and building under a new project looked okay until i enabled the Issue remarks (-pdr) compiler option; then all the messages reappeared.

Peter,

I'm at a lost on why/how you are getting those warnings.  Is it possible that you can make a cut down project that reproduces the error and attach it here?

Judah

The attached should be complete.7608.ti.zip

Peter

Thanks.

I knew that I could suppress them, I just don't want to suppress messages without knowing why they occur.

Peter
