Hello,

When I build a C source with the code

 

__asm void test( void )
{
    PRESERVE8

    mov r0, #0                      
}

I have the error message : "Sh: /opt/RVDS4/RVCT/Programs/4.0/400/linux-pentium//armasm: Permission denied (E0)" in file "/test/main.cpp"

 

 

Thanks.

Hi Morgane,

We don't currently support assembler, just C/C++. That is why you are getting this (somewhat ugly) error. But thanks for showing interest in it, and i'll add asm support to the wishlist!

Thanks,
Simon

Weird, my FFT program still compiles. However, It uses separate .s files, not inline asm.

Hi Igor,

I should say it is not "officially" supported. Separate .s files do actually work at the moment, but not officially :P And inline asm doesn't. But we'll look to add it...
