CCS/PROCESSOR-SDK-AM335X: NDK header file doesn't compile

Part Number: PROCESSOR-SDK-AM335X


Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hello,

I am getting an error when compiling a CPP file.

I have drilled it down to this.  This is a source file with no contents.  The header file "ti/drv/emac/src/v4/emac_drv_v4.h" is generating an error on line 138

Here are the entire contents of my source file:

/*
 * TestFile.cpp
 *
 *  Created on: Jul 24, 2017
 *      Author: me
 */

#include <ti/drv/emac/emac_drv.h>

#include <ti/drv/emac/src/v4/emac_drv_v4.h>

When CCS 7.2 compiles this, using the GNU 4.9.3 compiler, it generates this error:

'Building file: ../TestFile.cpp'
'Invoking: GNU Compiler'
"C:/ti/gcc-arm-none-eabi-4_9-2015q3/bin/arm-none-eabi-gcc.exe" -c -mcpu=cortex-a8 -mtune=cortex-a8 -march=armv7-a -marm -mfloat-abi=hard

-gstrict-dwarf -Wall -c -MMD -MP -MMD -MP -MF"TestFile.d" -MT"TestFile.o" -o"TestFile.o" @"configPkg/compiler.opt"

"../TestFile.cpp"
subdir_rules.mk:16: recipe for target 'TestFile.o' failed
In file included from ../TestFile.cpp:12:0:
C:/ti/pdk_am335x_1_0_7/packages/ti/drv/emac/src/v4/emac_drv_v4.h:138:13: error: expected '}' at end of input
} EMAC_McbV4;

This exact location is the closing of a "typedef struct"  I cannot see any reason the compiler would complain about it, in either C or C++.

Does anyone know why this header file will not compile in C++, but will compile in straight C?

Thanks.

    I found the problem.

    In the file:   <ti/drv/emac/src/v4/emac_drv_v4.h>

    There is an opening

    #ifdef __cplusplus
extern "C" {
#endif

    However, there is no matching 

    #ifdef __cplusplus
}
#endif

    The compiler is stopping at the location where it expects the closing brace should fit.  I added that fragment myself to get it to compile.

    Can the team responsible for this please fix this header file?

    You're welcome.
    You once asked me to identify where the team did not respond to a post...  Well this is one from last week which I am having to hack the TI headers in order to make it work:
    And I keep uncovering more issues with header files having conflicts.
    I now live in fear that the next update will overwrite things that I am having to hack up in order to get the TI provided materials to work properly.  And that it will set me back several days of work.
