Error in use of semihosting with XMC1300 boot kit

[mh09]

Hi,

I followed this link to enable XMC_DEBUG/printf() function.

https://community.infineon.com/t5/DAVE/DAVE-TIP-of-the-day-Semihosting-in-DAVEv4/td-p/309725?p=11700...

However, I got this error at the end. Can you guide me to resolve this? Thank you

Hi @mh09 ,

Can you please let us know if you have changed the extension/type of some of the files?

For example changing main.c to main.cpp

Hi @mh09 ,

In step 1 of the Semihosting in DAVEv4, you see the following 

- Linker Settings: Select “ARM-GCC C Linker  Miscellaneous  Other Flags:” , enter “-specs=rdimon.specs -specs=nosys.specs”

Instead of adding "-specs=rdimon.specs -specs=nosys.specs", only add "-specs=rdimon.specs" here as shown below:

Please try the build again after making the above mentioned change.

Warm Regards
Alen
