Problem with linker

[Hajoe-2]

I’m evaluating VisualGDB for my company. For our linux devices it works fine. But now i have a problem with our Nios2 devices (using an altera toolchain). I set up the project using the VisualGDB embbeded project wizzard.  The project builds fine with all subprojects (static linked libraries) but when the linker wants to link the binary itself i get the following:

Linking C executable xxxxx.elf
corelib/libcorelib.a:1: error: expected identifier or ‘(‘ before ‘!’ token
corelib/libcorelib.a:2: error: stray ‘`’ in program
corelib/libcorelib.a:3:1: warning: null character(s) ignored
corelib/libcorelib.a:3: error: stray ‘\1’ in program
corelib/libcorelib.a:3:5: warning: null character(s) ignored
corelib/libcorelib.a:3:7: warning: null character(s) preserved in literal

and so on…

The linker seems to have a problem with the ” character. What shall i do?

Hi,

This looks like a bug in a specific toolchain, rather than a VisualGDB issue. We can gladly help you find the root cause and devise a workaround, however as the issue is not in VisualGDB itself, we would have to charge a consulting fee for this work. Please contact our sales for a quote if you are interested.
