added new source to bsp, undefined reference in nios eclipse

Im on day 3 of my altera/nios/qsys/eclipse adventure

Ive generated an altera avalon spi/nios within qsys and have it working well. its 8 bits by default and i wanted to change that to 16 or 32 bits wide. I created copies of the altera_avalon_sp.h and altera_avalon_spi.c files (with an _32wide suffix) and saved them in the same location as the original files. I made my changes (alt_u8 to alt_u32 types), updated the .h file name in the .c source and saved everything.

I went to compile the top level source (helloworld_spi.c) and got an undefined reference to my new function.

I have tried to regenerate the bsp files, added the -lm to the nios application properties, and tried rebuilding the bsp, app project and everything that i can think of.

Can anyone help? Im an admitted newb, but i have to start somewhere...

thanks for all your help!
