ChibiOS shell, STM32 and C++, linking problem

[nameless1379]

Dear Giovanni:

I have recently started to use the C++ features of ChibiOS/RT 16.1.9. It works well before I tried to create a shell, and shows some errors on GCC linking as shown below.

Linking build/ch.elf
/usr/lib/gcc/arm-none-eabi/4.9.3/../../../arm-none-eabi/lib/armv7e-m/fpu/libg.a(lib_a-abort.o): In function `abort':

collect2: ERROR: ld returned 1 exit status

This problem only occurs when I invoke a "shellCreateStatic" function, and I really cannot solve this by myself. I also included the C++ wrapper which contains these undefined functions in my Makefile, but the result is the same. I am looking forward to your reply.

Hi,

You need to include /os/various/syscalls.c

Moved in a support forum.
