makefile to generate memory contents in Altera SOPC Builder

Hi,



I'm working on a Cyclone FPGA with NIOS project, which contains an onchip bootrom. I want to use a makefile to generate the contents of this bootrom. At first I used a single .C file which worked fine, but now I'm using a makefile and I can't get it to work. Can't find anything about it in the Altera documentation or website. My makefile is very simple and only contains one line to nios-build a bunch of C files. The command I use is "make -f %2/myproject.make" but it terminates with a strange error.



Anyone any experience with this?

Hi Jeroen.

One subtle "feature" of the GNU compiler is that it treats files with the extension ".C" (capital 'c') as a C++ file. If you were planning this to be purely c-language, you'll run into some strange errors. Try changing the extension from ".C" to ".c" and re-compile.
