How do you switch a project from compiling linked KSDK source to precompiled libraries?

dave408 — Fri, 22 Jan 2016 05:14:13 GMT

I'd like to get away from having the KSDK source files linked to my project. Ideally, I would precompile all of the KSDK libraries and then just add them to my project's linker's miscellaneous files.

So far, I believe I need, and therefore have precompiled the following:

ksdk_platform_lib
ksdk_startup_lib
ksdk_hal_lib
lib_mqx
ksdk_mqx_lib

I then added references to the files in my linker settings like so:

I think I'm really close. Unfortunately, at the moment I get one undefined reference to DbgConsole_Init(). I am unable to delete or disable this component without PEx getting really upset with me. I have been unable to find the location of DbgConsole_Init in any of the libraries. All I can think of at the moment is that I need to add a link to /platform/utilities to pull in fsl_debug_console, but wanted to see if anyone here had the same question and conclusion as me.

Hello dave,

Please try to build the lib of "mqx_stdlib" , then have a test.

it at here : Freescale\KSDK_1.3.0\rtos\mqx\mqx_stdlib\build\kds

Hope it helps

Have a great day,
Alice Yang

Thanks, Alice! I've added the extra projects to my workspace and I should have an idea soon of whether or not that was the missing link!

Hi Alice, unfortunately, adding that library did not help. It actually seems to not be necessary. I get the same error with or without it added to the list of libs.

If I import the /platform/utilities folder to my project as a virtual folder, then I can make the DgbConsole_Init() undefined reference go away and the project builds. However, at the moment it doesn't run properly, which is another topic for discussion at a later time.
