MetroWerks CodeWarrior Compiler Version 4.2

[AnilAbraham]

Hi,

I have a piece of code in my source file. This is called from one of the RTOS kernel startup routines.

exit(main(argc, argv));

similarily at some other location

main(0, (char **) 0);

I am getting the compilation error:

### mwcceppc.exe Compiler:
#    File: ..\..\common\osemain.c
# -------------------------------
#    1557:   main(argc, argv);
#   Error:                  ^
#   'main()' cannot be called or referenced by address
### mwcceppc.exe Compiler:
#    1801:    main(0, (char **) 0);
#   Error:                       ^
#   'main()' cannot be called or referenced by address

Errors caused tool to abort.

Any clues as what could be going wrong ??

TIA,
Anil

Need a little more info here... Are you targeting PowerPC or ColdFire? What is the RTOS? Is this a code port from somewhere else?

Hi Tom,

I am using CodeWarrior for PowerPC architecture to compile the RTOS OSE5.2 from Enea. The compiler is part of the CodeWarrior Professional Edition version 8.7.

Version of the compiler is

Usage: mwcceppc.exe [-options]... [files]... [@response]...

Please enter 'mwcceppc.exe -help' for information about options.

But interestingly i have a little older version of the same compiler from a previous installation, here it just gives only a warning.
