Title: libMPSSE: gcc returns an error
Post by: White_Fox on August 10, 2018, 07:01:30 AM

Hi

 I try to go first steps with libMPSSE for writing a simple SPI test for a FT232H, using gcc-installed with cygwin-under Netbeans.

Now, the gcc returns: "relocation truncated to fit: R_X86_64_PC32 against undefined symbol `SPI_GetNumChannels'". The message points to the SPI_GetNumChannels()-call in following code (below):

    status = SPI_GetNumChannels(&channels); //<-- compiler-error here

    //printf("Es sind %u Gerät(e) angeschlossen", channels);

    return (EXIT_SUCCESS);
}
The initialisation is the same like in code samples. I guess that the problem occures cause I'm working with a 64bit-OS (Win7), but I'm not sure about this. Sorry, but my experiance in C is quite poorly, in special of windows programming. The compiled sample programm works fine, but the code samples does not compile.

Does anyone have an idea how I get the code working?

Edit: Here is the complete output from Netbeans:

After several attempts, I got new error messages. The message above does not seems to be triggered by 32/64bit-problem. I appreciated this cause most hints relating to this message suggest this.

I started a new project (now with MinGW) and add the sample-path in libMPSSE "LibMPSSE-SPI\samples\SPI\SPI" to the directory (project property in Netbeans IDE), also the linker path. Headerfiles are included from here.
Now the compiler returns:

The errors are linked to ftd2xx.h. If I follow the error links, I can find that:

Quote

#ifdef __cplusplus //<-- This is line no. 253
extern "C" {
#endif


   FTD2XX_API
      FT_STATUS WINAPI FT_Open( //<- This is red marked, line no. 259
      int deviceNumber,
      FT_HANDLE *pHandle
      );

   FTD2XX_API
      FT_STATUS WINAPI FT_OpenEx( //<- This is red marked, line no. 265
      PVOID pArg1,
      DWORD Flags,
      FT_HANDLE *pHandle
      );

   FTD2XX_API
      FT_STATUS WINAPI FT_ListDevices( //<- This is red marked, line no. 271
      PVOID pArg1,
      PVOID pArg2,
      DWORD Flags
      );

Please, has anyone an idea what is missing or why the build fails? I don't think that there is a '=' missing, but what else is going wrong?
