Re: eCos 3.0 beta 1 now available for download


Hi Iilja

Many thanks for your eCos 3.0 beta 1 testing report.

Yes, this is still an issue. The offending flags are filtered out in
${ECOS_REPOSITORY}/pkgconf/rules.mak when building the eCos tests. You
can use a similar technique in your own application makefiles when
building C code. For example:

  $(filter-out -Woverloaded-virtual -fno-rtti,$(ECOS_GLOBAL_CFLAGS))

The issue is that these flags are required for C++ files but deliver the
warning you observe for C files. In the future, we should treat the
CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS separately at the configuration level.

Since CYGPKG_HAL_ARM_MAC7100 requires CYGHWR_HAL_ARM_BIGENDIAN == 1 you
could reduce the number of initial conflicts by adding "-mbig-endian" to
CYGBLD_GLOBAL_CFLAGS and CYGBLD_GLOBAL_LDFLAGS in your platform HAL
packages. However, some configuration changes are unavoidable when
switching targets.
