MCuXpresso Linker issue:" Error while creating linker script for project.."

[fmabrouk]

Can anyone say why this error on a sudden started to show up whenever I try to build my project. I am using MCUXpresso IDE 11.2.1

Thank you!

Hi fmabrouk,

  Thanks for your interest in the NXP MIMXRT product, I would like to provide service for you.

   1. Your MCUXPresso IDE version is old, you can update it to the newest version 11.3.0

2.  Do you use your own linker file? 

   You need to make sure your linker script is correct at first.

  In the linker script, you need to select your own linker file: 

Wish it helps you!

If you still have questions about it, please kindly let me know.

Best Regards,

Kerry

Hi Kerry,

I updated my IDE to 11.3.0, and I am still having exactly same error. I am not using my own linker. My build was working just fine before, but something has changed unintentionally that make it now fail to build successfully without this linker error.

Thanks again!

Hi fmabrouk

  Check the NXP SDK MCUXPresso project, do you still have the issues or not?

 Do you still remember which detail modification when you meet this issues, can you delete something to recovery the project which don't have the link issue?

Best Regards,

Kerry

Spoiler

Yes I’m still having same problem. I did not change anything; 

can you tell me what cause this issue to happen; is there any configuration I need to change?

HI fmabrouk,

  Whether the SDK code has these issues or not?

  Do you try to clean the project, and build it again, whether the issue is resolved or not?

  Are you sure, your old .ldt works?

  As I know, the MCUXPresso IDE should use the .ld, not the ldt as linker files.

You can check the SDK code, all are using .ld.

Best Regards,

Kerry
