Troubles linking after switching to version 17 of the SDK

[apdobaj]

I'm getting the following linker errors after switching to the latest version of the SDK (17.1.0). I believe I've included the files that define the offending macros (for example, crys_ecpki_build.h), please advise how I can get rid of these undefined references.

Hi Einar, thank you for that little insight, that wasn't the only thing wrong but it led me down the right path and I now can compile and link, thank you. Just out of curiosity, adding the library to the options->Linker->Additional system libraries doesn't work, I get a "can't find" error. Would this not be a valid way to include that library in the build?

Good to hear it work. I am not sure what actually happens in SES when you use options->Linker->Additional system libraries. To be honest, I did not even know it existed. I suggest you ask Segger if you want to know the details about that. In any case, I suggest you do it the same way as is done in all example projects we provide.
