ld returned 1 exit status

[bad]

Hi

When I try to build my embedded nRF51 project, I get an error from collect2.exe “ld returned 1 exit status” without any further information.

I’m using the S110 Softdevice and the make file looks like this:

#Generated by VisualGDB (http://visualgdb.com)
#DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE MANUALLY UNLESS YOU ABSOLUTELY NEED TO
#USE VISUALGDB PROJECT PROPERTIES DIALOG INSTEAD

BINARYDIR := Debug

#Additional flags
PREPROCESSOR_MACROS := DEBUG
INCLUDE_DIRS := src/6_global src/5_setup src/4_chal src/3_phal src/2_srv src/1_app src/1_app/ctrl src/1_app/mt src
LIBRARY_DIRS :=

ASFLAGS :=
LDFLAGS := -Wl,-gc-sections
COMMONFLAGS :=
LINKER_SCRIPT := $(BSP_ROOT)/nRF51/LinkerScripts/nRF51422_XXAC_s110.lds

START_GROUP := -Wl,–start-group
END_GROUP := -Wl,–end-group

#Additional options detected from testing the toolchain
USE_DEL_TO_CLEAN := 1
CP_NOT_AVAILABLE := 1

ADDITIONAL_MAKE_FILES := nrf5x.mak
GENERATE_BIN_FILE := 1
GENERATE_IHEX_FILE := 0

 

Any Ideas??

Please try adding -Wl,-verbose to the LDFLAGS and build your project again. Then check the build log for clues. If nothing helps, please try the black box approach – pick a project that links successfully and try eliminating the differences between that project and your current project one by one (source files, flags, softdevice, linker script) to see which one is causing the bug.
