VisualGDB setting test error

[PeterU]

Hi,

VisualGDB performs a test when you save the settings. When using a EFR32MG22 device linker file(supplied by silicon labs) to build a VisualGDB project the project builds OK.

Every time the VisualGDB properties are changed. A setting test error is raised:

linkerfile.ld:48: undefined symbol `__Vectors' referenced in expression"

Is there a way to stop the test reporting this error. As it is not an error the variable __Vectors is defined in the startup code of the project?

Regards

Hi,

The mechanism for retesting the toolchain with every setting change is only used in the legacy GNU Make-based project type. Newer MSBuild-based and CMake-based projects do not need it and should generally work better (also building the project after changing settings will be faster). If this is not an option and you need to use GNU Make, you can simply ignore the “toolchain testing failed” error.

Thanks, will keep using GNU Make for now, and ignore the warning.
