Yes, this is a newsgroup. http://forum.niosforum.com/work2/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif

But, I haven&#39;t found anything useful about how to build a makefile to link a library for NIOS. One useful comment about the required bizarre name prefix for the mangled make manager, and that&#39;s it.

My options seem to be:

a: a library built outside the NIOS IDE.

b: An &#39;advanced c/c++ project&#39; built within the IDE. This seems to be deprecated.

c: Some kind of additional "HAL" module, which just pushes my code into the system library.

&#39;a&#39; seems the only sensible one, because at least it stops the IDE make system from getting in the way of everything.

If I succeed with what I&#39;m doing, I&#39;ll post an example makefile...
