NIOS II 11.0--Error creating project

I am new to NIOS. I have build an SOPC system using Quartus 11.0. The system has an on-chip ram. Now, I am using NIOS II - Eclipse platform to build the application. I choose "New NIOS II Application and BSP from template". After adding my SOPC Information file, I selected blank project, but when I try to create the project, it gives the following error.  

Quote: 

SEVERE: [Error] altera_hal_linkerx_generator: Required linker section mappings do not exist: "[.entry, .exceptions, .rodata, .rwdata, .text, .bss, .heap, .stack]" 

SEVERE: [Error] altera_hal_linkerx_generator: Required linker section mappings do not exist: "[.entry, .exceptions, .rodata, .rwdata, .text, .bss, .heap, .stack]" 

SEVERE: nios2-bsp-create-settings failed. 

nios2-bsp: nios2-bsp-create-settings failed 

nios2-bsp hal . D:/***.sopcinfo --cpu-name cpu failed 

 

Can somebody help me with this? Is this error caused by some problem with my SOPC system or there is some other reason. 

I am using NIOS II EDS 11.0. 

 

Any response is highly appreciated.

Hi, when generating the BSP, try this: 

 

in BSP editor-> liker script sheet assign linker region name to the desired sections. The .entry and .exception are set from SOPC/QSYS. 

 

I hope that was helpful.

Hey, 

 

Can you please explain what do you mean by ".entry and .exception are set from sopc/qsys". When I am in BSP editor-> linker script Tab, I cannot select .entry and .exception options. Please let me know if I am doing something wrong or I am missing something. 

 

Thanks.

Hi, exactly my point. 

 

You can modify those field from SOPC/QSYS only.
