#1682 External references unresolved by Linker

[Raimundo Abreu]

Dear developers, the linker could not resolve the external symbol, "__gptrput.
version:
SDCC: mcs51/gbz80/z80/avr/ds390/pic16/pic14/TININative/xa51/ds400/hc08 2.9.0 # 5416 (Mar 22 2009) (MingW32)
commands:
> Sdcc func.c
> Asx8051 funca.asm startup program ....
> Aslink-f link.lk

in place of LCALL __gptrput , we get a result LCALL 0000 in file. hex

following files for evaluation.

Thanks

Raimundo,

I do not completely understand your bug report. Did you get any error message about unresolved externals? Or is the absence of such a message the bug?

Did you really install sdcc in C:\Arquivos de programas\SDCC ? Or was it somehwere else?

Your first line should give 'error 74: function 'main' undefined' since you did not use the -c option.

I also don't get what 'startup program ....' is doing on the Asx8051 invocation line. What was your intention with that and didn't you get any errors from this? And without -o option you will not get a .rel file.

When I use
> sdcc -c func.c
> asx8051 -lo funca.asm
> aslink -f link.lk
Where link.lk was modified to use -k C:\Program Files\SDCC\bin\..\lib\small because that is where I have sdcc installed, then I get no errors and the address of gptrput in the hex file is ok.

So I cannot reproduce this bug when the link.lk file is correct for my system. I therefor set this item pending and it will auto-close in a few weeks.
