RE: Problem in porting EPICS on microblaze softcore processor

["Hill, Jeffrey O" <johill@lanl.gov>]

Hi,

 

I have had some success with embedding a complete EPICS IOC, along

with RTEMS, into an Altera NIOS2 soft core. I will give some status at

the EPICS meeting. We are using the Altera NIOS2 enhanced gcc 4.1

source we have patched, configured, and build specially for RTEMS.

Subject: Problem in porting EPICS on microblaze softcore processor

 

Hi all,

 

Last few days ,I am working on porting EPICS in microblaze softcore processor with uClinux. For this I am trying to build a Channel access portable server code on it as referring the tutorial on Channel Access Portable Server Application Interface (API) by Philip Stanley.

 

It consists of four c++ files namely myServer.h,Ÿ myPV.cc,Ÿ myServer.cc and Ÿ Server.cc. I could successfully compile the cc files and generate the object files in uClinux (namely myPV.o myServer.o Server.o). But while generating executable named Server by linking the object files with the libraries libcas.a, libca.a, libCom.a, and libgdd.a i am stuck at an error. microblaze-uclinux-gnu toolchain is used for compilation. I know my problem is a bit specific, but if anyone who has worked with uclinux earlier may help me.

 

Following is the error output at the console
