Empty output when using custom linker script

Hi guys.

I'm developing the FW of one LPC11C24 board using LPCXpresso v8.0.0 [Build 526].
When I trying to using a custom linker script to shift the release code from sector 0 to sector 1 (0x1000) the compiler generates one empty output like the follow:

ext	data	bss	dec	hex	filename
0	0	0	0	0	LeMiG.axf

The output file LeMiG.axf is empty.
If I keep the default script all builds fine.

I've attached my custom linker file.

Where I wrong?
Thanks in advance.

Diego.

Hi.

Solved by myself.

There are required not one but three files:

XXX_Release.ld
XXX_Release_library.ld
XXX_Release_memory.ld

Also It seems to be recommended to put the files under a different folder.

Thanks.

You don't need a custom linker script if you are just moving the base of memory - you can just use the memory configuration editor - see Chapter 14 of the User Manual.
