Sorry about the extra stuff, the linking problem was due to the compiler
trying to find the above link "___ucmpsi2". When I used h8300-hitachi-hms-nm
I could see all the methods and links in my code, and this was the only strange
looking one. I tracked it down to a single line of code that was along the
lines of ;
if(unsigned_long_var1 - unsigned_long_var2) > sizeof(unsigned char)) .....

By evaluating both sides of the '>' seperatly and assigning the results to
variables, before testing the '>' between these two variables, the problem
miraculously disappeared .....strange I know ...

i.e

unsigned long foo = (unsigned_long_var1 - unsigned_long_var2);
unsigned long foo2 = sizeof(unsigned char);
if(foo > foo2) ...

Does this mean that the compiler is failing whilst trying to optimise the
code ? I'm still very new to C/C++ so I'd appreciate any information or
possible explanation of this .....still learning ;-)

Hi Can anyone tell me why I'm getting a linking failure when trying to compile my C code, in the standard way. The linker is failing to find a fucntion I have defined in my source: /usr/local/crossgcc/...chi-hms-ld -T ../boot/legOS.lds -relax (...) (24 years ago, 28-Aug-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
