Hi All,

Just starting with FreeRTOS... Baby steps first - just wanted to try already existed port before doing anything.

Got the Experimenter board MSP-EXP430F5438, IAR EW for MSP430 5.20 Evaluation, downloaded a demo,
compiled as Release_Large_Data_Model with no changes whatsoever and... got some errors:

Linking
Error[e46]: Undefined external "__close" referred in ?fclose ( C:\Program Files\IAR Systems\Embedded Workbench 6.0 Evaluation\430\LIB\DLIB\dl430xlff.r43 )
Error[e46]: Undefined external "remove" referred in ?fclose ( C:\Program Files\IAR Systems\Embedded Workbench 6.0 Evaluation\430\LIB\DLIB\dl430xlff.r43 )
Error[e46]: Undefined external "__write" referred in ?fflush ( C:\Program Files\IAR Systems\Embedded Workbench 6.0 Evaluation\430\LIB\DLIB\dl430xlff.r43 )
Error[e46]: Undefined external "__lseek" referred in ?xfspos ( C:\Program Files\IAR Systems\Embedded Workbench 6.0 Evaluation\430\LIB\DLIB\dl430xlff.r43 )
Error while running Linker

However, in debug mode everything compiles and runs with no errors.

Can anyone shed some light on a problem for a newbie, please?

I just tried a clean build of a clean V6.1.1 installation and using the Release_Large_Data_Model found it compiled with no errors or warnings (IAR V5.20). The output is below. Those errors sound like a mis-configured library configuration. I would suggest unzipping a clean V6.1.1 download and trying it again - and if you get the same problem, try comparing the linker/library settings between the debug and release configurations to see what the differences are.
