Does Keil support library file with .a extension?
Yes...But then I was getting some errors...seems like keil is not recognizing the ecoslib.a file.
So - was that ecoslib.a file generated with the Keil tools? Or was it an already existing file generated using some other tools?
With some few exceptions (like when the target architecture have a very well defined ABI), you normally always need to compile the library with the same tools or the generated code in the library will not be compatible with the generated code in all the other object files.
The library file was generated using configtool for eCos.
Are you really saying that configtool is a compiler + librarian?
