Hello, I am trying to install the Host Test program located in simplelink_cc2640 SDK.

I am running into this error when trying to build the program

error #10234-D: unresolved symbols remain

error #10010: errors encountered during linking; "host_test_cc2640r2lp_app.out" not built
>> Compilation failure
makefile:201: recipe for target 'host_test_cc2640r2lp_app.out' failed
gmake[1]: *** [host_test_cc2640r2lp_app.out] Error 1
gmake: *** [all] Error 2
makefile:194: recipe for target 'all' failed

I imported the projects directly from the SDK example file. I don't see where it could have gone wrong.

Hi Salvador,

Have you built the stack first? Then build the app second.

Yes there were no issues building the stack.

I am trying to get the host-test working on one CC2640 to begin connecting device to PC.

I am linking to the two missing files, but I cannot find them in their directories.

If it helps to know I am running the project after downloading it directly from the resource explorer.

I already posted about this issue once, but I figured I should post about it again now that I know more about the problem.

Thank you,

Salvador Garza

Hello again Salvador ,

I've joined your posts since they cover the same topic as the earlier post. Please be more descriptive about your error and provide a clear procedure so some else can replicate your condition.

Best wishes

Thank you for the resource! It seems that some of the files that need to be linked are missing from the directory. I am running the project directly from the resource explorer by the way.

Thank you! Could I delete and repost the question? I have figured out a bit more about my problem and would like to elaborate. Namely the fact that my project seems to be missing files that need to be linked.

You can post your findings directly.

It appears as if I am missing some files.

ble_r2.symbols

lib_linker.cmd

they are not in their directories so I cannot link them to the host-test app project.

Hi Salvador,

When you build the host_test stack, these files should be generated.

Can you confirm if the two highlighted files below in the screenshot exist after you build the stack?

And also in the host_test app properties check if those files are linked correctly?

I believe that they are properly linked but the files do not seem to be in the stack after being built.

Hi Salvador,

If you look into the stack_library project properties, check the pre-build steps (Build->Steps) if it matches below:

${TOOLS_BLE_DIR}/lib_search/lib_search ${PROJECT_LOC}/TOOLS/build_config.opt ${SRC_BLE_DIR}/blelib ${WORKSPACE_LOC}/host_test_cc2640r2lp_stack_library/FlashROM_Library/lib_linker.cmd cc2640 ${TOOLS_BLE_DIR}/lib_search/lib_search.xml ${SRC_BLE_DIR}/symbols

0 Salvador Garza over 7 years ago in reply to Sy Su

Yes the pre-build steps match up to the ones you posted.

0 Salvador Garza over 7 years ago in reply to Sy Su

Intellectual 500 points

By any chance would you be able to build the stack and then send me the missing files? It should work if I place them in directory*.

Hi Salvador,

I'd like to check on another thing.

Does your project location's file path have any spaces in it?

To check, can you open up the stack library project properties and go to Resource?

Then look at the Location field. If there is a space in any of it, reimport the project into a workspace that doesn't have a space in the file path.

For example this can cause an issue:

C:\Users\Sy_Su\workspace_v7_3\test sandbox\host_test_cc2640r2lp_stack_library

Whereas this shouldn't:

C:\Users\Sy_Su\workspace_v7_3\test_sandbox\host_test_cc2640r2lp_stack_library

There is a space between my name
C:\Users\Salvador Garza\workspace_v7_3\test_sandbox\host_test_cc2640r2lp_stack_library

I am going to assume that is the problem. Will get back to you on whether or not it worked.

0 Salvador Garza over 7 years ago in reply to Sy Su

Intellectual 500 points

Thank you! There was a space between the User name:
Salvador Garza

I was unable to merge the names together because Windows 10 wants a first and last name, so I created a new User environment specifically for coding (with no spaces).
Thank you very much!

Great! Glad to hear this got sorted out.
Yeah Windows 10 unfortunately does this automatically for its users.
