Type undefined reference to `alt_ic_isr_register' and general include paths

[DiBosco]

I am having an absolute nightmare with paths in Eclipse. I have taken over someone's dog's dinner of a project, trying to tidy it up and make it proper code.

I could not get paths to work properly at all. Everything needed

#include "../bar/foo.h"

rather than just

#include "foo.h"

Despite bar being in the include directory lists.

It got to silly stage at one point with needing ../../../ kind of thing in some of the paths, and some of them would simply only work with an absolute full OS path in the source code, so I posted on stack overflow and the only vague kind of response was asking whether I was using the automake file function. Eventually found where that  was, turned on the option and that completely broke everything.

So, I thought well, I reasonably understand what's going on in this project now, maybe the best bet is just to create a new blank project from scratch, using auto make, and using the old bsp settings file.

So, I did that and started to piece together the project, everything was going fine. I didn't need anything other than the header file name (no relative paths when I included the appropriate paths in C++/Paths and Symbols/Includes GNU C).

However, I then came to add this line:

alt_ic_isr_register(USB3_CONTROLLERSUBSYS_FT600_SYS_NIOS_TO_PC_TXEN_GPIO_IRQ_INTERRUPT_CONTROLLER_ID,
USB3_CONTROLLERSUBSYS_FT600_SYS_NIOS_TO_PC_TXEN_GPIO_IRQ, ft600_tx_irq_routine, TXEnedge_capture_ptr, 0x0);

I get this:

Description Resource Path Location Type
undefined reference to `alt_ic_isr_register' ft600.c /application/drivers line 149 C/C++ Problem

Now, if I CTL-CLICK on the alt_ic_isr_register line in the source code, it clearly shows two header files with that entry and in the BSP C files that function is there.

Is someone please able to help me. I have spent two days on this and I'm utterly fed up with it.

Many thanks!

Hi @DiBosco,

Thank you for posting in Intel community forum, hope this message find you well and apologies for the delayed in response.
Apologies for the inconvenient cause, we do have a knowledge article to including C/C++ files for Nios ii software project here.
Please do have a quick look at that to see if that helps.

Best Wishes
