CONFIG_CPP_STATIC_INIT_GNU is not user configurable as the error you got stated, but it is enabled by default - so in any case there is no need to set it. To use it though you need to use non-standard GNU specific way of doing it, but I have not found out how you would do that (and to be frank, my C++ is quite rusty). I do not see enough of your code to say if that would be sensibel anyway though, but I originally intended it just as a simple test (which it turned out not to be 🙂)

Hi Einar. Thank you for your help.

I incremented the memory stack size and it worked perfectly (it worked without the static keyword).

However, I would like to understand some errors that I got during the implementation of this:

If I put static keyword, I got this error:

main.cpp:113: undefined reference to `__cxa_guard_release'

I also tried adding in the prj.conf the following:

CONFIG_CPP_STATIC_INIT_GNU=y

But I got the following error:

error: CPP_STATIC_INIT_GNU (defined at c:\NRF52833\timer\timer_test_1\build\subsys\cpp\Kconfig:78) is assigned in a configuration file,
but is not directly user-configurable (has no prompt). It gets its value indirectly from other
symbols. See http://docs.zephyrproject.org/latest/reference/kconfig/CONFIG_CPP_STATIC_INIT_GNU.html
and/or look up CPP_STATIC_INIT_GNU in the menuconfig/guiconfig interface. The Application
Development Primer, Setting Configuration Values, and Kconfig - Tips and Best Practices sections of
the manual might be helpful too.

How does it fail now? And did you try to simply increase the stack size? If you don't make progress, perhaps you can upload the failing project here along with instructions on how to build it so that I can have a look?

The problem is exacly the stack. However, when I put the static keyword to the object inside the main method it does not compile the .cpp file even after I put CONFIG_CPP_STATIC_INIT_GNU=y at the config file.

Hi,

The first thing that comes to mind is a stack overflow issue. A global object is never on the stack, but when you declare it within a function it will be on the stack unless you make it static. So a simple way to see if this could be it is to make it static (by using the static keyword when you declare it) and see if the issue persists. If you are using the nRF Connect SDK you can also add a stack guard and check the debug log to see if that is it (CONFIG_MPU_STACK_GUARD). You can use CONFIG_MAIN_STACK_SIZE to increase the main stack size.
