GNU Arm Embedded Toolchain

C++ Startup file and linker script for STM32F407VG - Eclipse

Asked by Emile Castelnuovo

Hello, I have a project written in c/c++ and would like to use the ARM-GCC toolchain in Eclipse.
At the moment I am using the codesourcery lite that does not enable me to use hardFP andI have some problems to understand how to port my project to use the ARM-GCC toolchain.
It seems that the linker script and startup files are configured to use only C so my code compiles but does not run on my F4.
Is anybody able to provide me with a correct set of files to start working in this environment?
I am new to all this so please excuse my poor knowledge.

Thank you,
Emile

I can't help without more information of your setting up, like what startup file are you using; what's the error message.

If possible, you can try CooCox CoIDE at http://www.coocox.org/index.html. This IDE can be easily configured to use our tool chain to build your project. In addition, the IDE provides all required startup files and link script. It's a good place to learn something.

Make sure to enable C++ support in makefile - without that switch your global constructors/destructors will not be called!
