G++ - Linker returns error about PE ops on non-PE format

[Philip Muzzall]

Hello, pretty new to BMOS.

I'm trying to learn how to write and compile some C++ apps for BMOS, but the g++ linker always gives me the error about trying to perform PE operations on a non-PE format. Perhaps I'm missing a flag? Here's the command line I'm using:

"g++ -m64 -nostdlib -nostartfiles -nodefaultlibs -fomit-frame-pointer -mno-red-zone -o App.o App.cxx libBareMetal.c -Ttext=0x200000 -T app.ld"

Are you doing this on a Windows computer? Or in Linux?

I'm using Windows with TDM-GCC 4.6.1

I can't comment on C++ but I know the TDM-GCC compiler works with C.

Try something similar to this:

gcc -m64 -nostdlib -nostartfiles -nodefaultlibs -mno-red-zone -o hello.o hello.c libBareMetal.c -DBAREMETAL -Ttext=0x200000
objcopy -O binary hello.o hello.app
