Linking individual functions from elib

[MartinL]

Hi.

I encountered an unwanted effect when using e_irq_enable() from the e_ic.h.
The binary included EVERY one of the interrupt service functions in my code.
Is there some way to include only the used functions, from a pre-built library?
I am using toolchain version 4.7.0.

Thank you for guidance, and I am happy to provide you with additional info, if needed.

What version of eSDK are you using? Looks like you are using an old revision (4.xx)? Try updating your installed release. The e_irq_enable() is not supported in esdk 5.xx.

Ok, I don't know if we really ought to update, we're working with an Altera/Bittware
kit (the EMEK?), arriving with a pre-installed ubuntu-pc and all. But can it be that the
newer eSDK packages have the ability of including individual functions from a lib,
whereas the older (4.X) does not?

(Hopefully we'll soon receive our own parallella, and we'll be sure to keep ourselves
updated then...)

The new eSDK definitely packs only the linked-to functions. I believe that eSDK 4.xx did as well.

However, you can use some e-gcc (or e-ld) command options to strip out unused symbols and objects from your executable (don't remember the exact option right now, you can run a search online).

MartinL, Could you post your compiler and linker command lines?
