Hello, I downloaded newlib-lpc from http://www.aeolusdevelopment.com/Articles/download.html, changed paths in the makefile and linker script, replaced <unistd.h> with <sys/unistd.h>, and was finally able to build the newlib-lpc.a. But building the examples fails with the message "arm-elf-ld: cannot find -lnewlib-lpc", although the file is in /tmp/newlib and I have SEARCH_DIR( /tmp/newlib) in the linker script. Any hints? Thanks |

Try the GNU tools from Arius, they come with Newlib and work OK: http://www.gnuarm.com/ Leon |

Hello,
try renaming newlib-lpc.a to libnewlib-lpc.a. AFAIK ld strips
the the "lib" and ".a" from the library name when using the -l option.
e.g When you want to include libc.a you use
-lc

But I'll take a look at that for the next update. Robert " 'Freedom' has no meaning of itself. There are always restrictions, be they legal, genetic, or physical.
