Hello,

  In my project, I had printf function to add display in the console. I had all instructions decribe here http://support.code-red-tech.com/CodeRedWiki/UsingPrintf   (MCU Linker - Target "Newlib (semihost)) but it still not work do you have an idea?

I'm currently working on LPC1769  using RED suite 4 with newlib + semihost options. I found the solution. I have added the function fflush(stdout) after each printf to display each string I want.

I suspect that you aren't terminating the string being printed with a newline then (the text to be displayed gets buffered).

ie use [FONT=Courier New][SIZE=2]printf ("Hello World\n");[/SIZE][/FONT] rather than [FONT=Courier New][SIZE=2]printf ("Hello World");[/SIZE][/FONT]

If you are trying to convert an existing example project to add in a printf, then this previous post might help...

#1 Which MCU are we talking about?

#2 Did you create this project with project wizard and semihosting?

#3 Did you change SYMBOL settings?

#4 Did you try to create a new semihosting project and change it to NEWLIB?
