Hi all

I just switched to Ride7 from Ride6 (BN747) and have some problems to build my project in the new enviroment.
The project worked fine in Ride6, so it seems to be a problem with the new IDE.

My application runs from Flash. However, some functions need to be executed from RAM.
I did this by placing the function into "data" section with the "section" attribute and calling the function via a function pointer as following:

//**************************************************************************
/* Function Prototype */
void RAM_Function(void) __attribute__ ((section (".data")));

/* Function Pointer */
static void (*Pointer_to_RAM_Function)(void) = RAM_Function;

/* Function */
void RAM_Function(void)
{
...
}

/* Application running from FLASH and calling the function located in RAM */
void FLASH_Function(void)
{
...
(*Pointer_to_RAM_Function)();
...
}
//**************************************************************************

This worked well with Ride6.
With Ride7, the linker has some problems and build fails:

//**********************************************************

collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

Build failed

Does anyone have a idea what the problem is? Should I define the functions in a different way for Ride7?

Thanks for your help!
