Linker request non existing file

olavbirkeland — Tue, 03 Nov 2015 11:16:19 GMT

I am getting the follollowing error message from the gcc linker:

arm-none-eabi-g++: error: ./Generated_Code/pin_ux.o: No such file or directory

Problem is that there are no c file called pin_ux.c* not in the ./Generated_Code folder or in any other folder.

Any ideas how to fix this?

I'am using:

Windows10

KDS 3.0.0

KSDK 1.3.0

Hi Olav,

It looks you are facing the Windows 8192 character limit, as it truncates some characters (pin_mux.o ==> pin_ux.o).

See Solving the 8192 Character Command Line Limit on Windows | MCU on Eclipse for the problem description and as well for the solution.

I hope this helps,

Erich

Hi Erich

Yes you were right the command line for the linker was more then 8192 characters. I have replaced the make.exe. echo.exe and rm.exe files as explained in the link you provided. However this is the result of a clean build:

The compiler does nothing at all.

I switched back to the old make.exe, echo.exe and rm.exe and then the compiler and linker does their jobb, but of cauce the linker fails due to the command line limitations in Windows.

Found the solution. Seems like the 2.6 version of the Gnu ARM Eclipse does not work. Changed to 2.4 and problem solved.

Hi Olav,

Version 2.6 should work fine as well.

Did you included also the associated lib*.dll files in the KDS_3.0.0/bin folder ?

Regards, Jacques.

Hi Jacques

No I did not. I was not aware of that. Please explain.

Basically I copied the full content of C:\Program Files\GNU ARM Eclipse\Build Tools\2.6-201507152002

into C:\Freescale\KDS_3.0.0\bin

It may be an overkill but at least makes Version 2.6 of GNU ARM Build Tools works fine
