Prebuild error

[Riaan]

Dear Nordic,

I am using the pre-build option to build always rebuild a file. This file is used to setup the date and time stamp of the build. I have done something similarly previously in Rowley (the basis of the SES tool)

linker_pre_build_command="emBuild -config "Common" -type "Object file" -project "Project" -property c_additional_options=-mfloat-abi=hard -rebuild -file $(ProjectDir)/datetime.cpp"

The issue is that I get

1> Pre-link command
1> cc1plus: error: '-mfloat-abi=hard': selected processor lacks an FPU
1> There were 1 build errors

I know this CPU has FPU, so it should work?

Can you help me out here, or is there a better way to always include the latest build time (without recompiling everything)?

Assuming you're using SES, there is an 'user build step' project option.  Set this build step to execute only when the project requires rebuilding. 

Your user build step can 'touch' your datetime.cpp.  Then your date/time file will be recompiled each time that anything is rebuilt.
