MPC554 - Command line link does not appear to use .LCF file.

[Brad]

The LCF file works correctly with CodeWarrior IDE.  However when used with the command line linker, the linker appears to completely ignore the .LCF file.  It gives me no warnings or faults, it just doesn't map the information in the LCF file.

From the .map file:

>>> SYMBOL NOT FOUND: __IV_ADDR
>>> SYMBOL NOT FOUND: CPUTBL_Get
>>> SYMBOL NOT FOUND: exit
>>> SYMBOL NOT FOUND: _ExitProcess
>>> SYMBOL NOT FOUND: fegetround
>>> SYMBOL NOT FOUND: remainderf
>>> SYMBOL NOT FOUND: InitializeUART
>>> SYMBOL NOT FOUND: WriteUARTN
>>> SYMBOL NOT FOUND: ReadUARTN
>>> SYMBOL NOT FOUND: __EXTERNAL_FLASH_START
>>> SYMBOL NOT FOUND: __EXTERNAL_SRAM_START
>>> SYMBOL NOT FOUND: __STACK_SIZE
>>> SYMBOL NOT FOUND: __SP_END
>>> SYMBOL NOT FOUND: __SRAM_SIZE
>>> SYMBOL NOT FOUND: __SRAM_START
>>> SYMBOL NOT FOUND: __SP_INIT
>>> SYMBOL NOT FOUND: __SBSS_SIZE
>>> SYMBOL NOT FOUND: __SBSS_START
>>> SYMBOL NOT FOUND: __SBSS2_SIZE
>>> SYMBOL NOT FOUND: __SBSS2_START
>>> SYMBOL NOT FOUND: __BSS_SIZE
>>> SYMBOL NOT FOUND: __BSS_START
>>> SYMBOL NOT FOUND: __EXTERNAL_SRAM_SIZE
>>> SYMBOL NOT FOUND: __ROM_COPY_SIZE
>>> SYMBOL NOT FOUND: __DATA_ROM
>>> SYMBOL NOT FOUND: __SRAM_CPY_START
>>> SYMBOL NOT FOUND: __ROM_COPY2_SIZE
>>> SYMBOL NOT FOUND: __SDATA2_ROM
>>> SYMBOL NOT FOUND: __SRAM_CPY2_START

The call to the linker:

On mwldmcf.exe (the Coldfire linker) there is no -lcf option. Instead, you provide the .lcf file as one of the files to 'link'. The linker recognizes the .lcf extension and parses the file

[J2MEJediMaster]

Have you tried specifying the complete directory path to the linker command file? Just a thought.
