Hi everybody,

maybe it is a stupid question, but I am stuck on it.
I am using an arm-none-eabi toolchain. when I use a function such as strcmp(..); I get un error: undefined reference to strcmp in this case, as you may see from the attached file.

this function is defined in the string.h header file, which I have included in my workspace. index.php/fa/7405/0/

Please advice!

Regards,

Pau index.php/fa/7405/0/

I don't see a #include for string.h in your source file. You have to tell the compiler what header files your program includes before it will look for them.

Thanks for your prompt reply!
Maybe I did not explain myself. That header file was already in the project although you did not see it, it is defined in the "include" zone, such as:
/* Includes ------------------------------------------------------------------*/
#include "stm32f10x_conf.h"
#include "stm32f10x.h" /* S'hi defineix el tipus de MCU utilitzat*/
#include "stm32f10x_it.h"
#include "string.h"

In the path & Symbols (properties of the project) I have add the path where those header files are in order to use their functions. (Please have a look to the file attached)

Maybe the problem is in my makefile (file attached), where I have not defined where to find that header file. I found this makefile in the web and I adapted to my project.

As I said before any idea will be welcome.

Pau

You must use angle brackets for system includes.

#include <string.h>

Yeah, thanks Axel for your reply!

you are absolutly right! Although, apparently the problem is not there! I have done the modifications and I still get the error.
I reckon that my problem is inside the makefile, which while it is linking it does not find these functions.
I am saying this because the output of the makefile:

...
..linking
arm-none-eabi-ld -g -v -nostartfiles -Map ./main.map -T./lib/stm32_flash.ld -o ./main.out obj/main.o obj/system_stm32f10x.o obj/stm32f10x_gpio.o obj/stm32f10x_rcc.o obj/stm32f10x_it.o obj/stm32f10x_exti.o obj/stm32f10x_pwr.o obj/stm32f10x_dbgmcu.o obj/stm32f10x_usart.o obj/stm32f10x_can.o obj/stm32f10x_iwdg.o obj/misc.o obj/startup_stm32f10x_md.o libgcc.a

Thanks again.
