 I&amp;#39;m trying to build a piece of firmware for the nRF51 DK, using the mbed OS 5 platform, but I keep getting a linker error from &amp;#39;ld&amp;#39;, using the ARM GCC 4.9 tools from Launchpad:

I don&amp;#39;t fully understand the mbed CLI and mbed OS features and compilation system yet. This is a strong area of interest for me, though, since the C++ API of mbed is relatively easy to use.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Linker 'cannot move counter backwards' on mbed.</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/60184?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Wed, 17 Aug 2016 08:16:21 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:c6ce6f7a-d0ba-4c3d-9bb4-b7ff49e3bc55</guid><dc:creator>H&amp;#229;kon Alseth</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Hi Maxv,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This indicates that your application is too big to fit into the sections set aside in the .ld scripts.
There&amp;#39;s a section on this error from RIOT-OS troubleshooting:
&lt;a href="https://github.com/RIOT-OS/RIOT/wiki/Troubleshooting#question-2"&gt;github.com/.../Troubleshooting&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Have you tried with different optimizations?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Cheers,
Håkon&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
