fp support of newlib based projects?

mbu2015 · ‎05-23-2017

Hello,

I have added some dummy floating point code to an example S32DS project.

I have chosen MPC5748G and newlib in the project wizard for core Z4_0.

This is what it tells me while building:

Do I have to include libm.a manually in the linker script? Where and how exactly?

One of the other cores I configured differently using EWL behaves as expected and obviously knows automatically where to take sqrtf() from.

Do you need the workspace?

Regards

Matthias

Hi Matthias,

for the newlib project I'd suggest to add libm.a manually since it's not the default Newlib setup.

All you need to add "m" it into Standard S32DS C Linker settings -> Libraries. It appears as -lm gcc switch and linker interprets it as "libm.a".

EWL know it automatically since it has been created by NXP whereas newlib is GNU project and we use it as is.

Hope it helps
