Hi Aram,

   i am using the arm-elf-gcc compiler to generate the assembly code

arm-elf-gcc -mthumb -S new.c

after this i use the arm-elf-as for genrating machine code

arm-elf-as new.s

Note - these two steps could be combined into one by using the -c switch instead of the -S switch:


  arm-elf-gcc -mthumb -c new.c

it produces one a.out file..

Note: Despite its name this "a.out" file is not an executable program it is just an object file that still needs to be linked. Naming the file a.out is a "feature" of the assembler.


arm-elf-ld a.out

produces error like

arm-elf-ld: warning: cannot find entry symbol _start; not setting start address

how do i type the correct command line option for this

Try using gcc to control the entire process from compilation to final link, like this:


  arm-elf-gcc new.c

Cheers
  Nick
