changing linker files does not cause a link step

Erich Styger — Sun, 13 Jul 2014 10:31:09 -0000

Plugin: Version 2.3.1-201407120554 (July 12th 2014)
Eclipse Kepler
Host: Windows7 64bit
Toolchain: GNU ARM Embedded (launchpad) 4.8.2

Issue: The make file rule created by the plugin is missing a dependency to the linker files.
It is this:

Tool invocations

test.elf: $(OBJS) $(USER_OBJS)
But should be someting like this

Tool invocations

test.elf: $(OBJS) $(USER_OBJS) $(LD_SCRIPTS)
with LD_SCRIPTS listing all linker scripts present/listed in the linker panel.

Steps:
1. Create new project (File > New C project > STM32F0xx C/C++ project) (can use default settings)
2. Build the project, everything builds fine
3. Touch/change the linker (.ld) files in the ldscripts folder
4. Build the project again (Project > Build Project)
Observe: project is not re-linked (only Cross ARM GNU print size is executed)
Expected: because the linker files have been changed, the project shall be linked again.
