Arm compiler 6 error when redefining __FILE

DavidAl

Hi, I want to redirect printf output to a serial port. A method for this is described here:

Libraries and Floating Point Support Guide: Redefining low-level library functions to enable direct use of high-level library functions in the C library (keil.com)

However, the code described there fails to compile with Arm compiler 6.16 (it compiles fine with GCC):

#include <stdio.h>
struct __FILE
{
int handle;
};
/* FILE is typedef’d in stdio.h. */
FILE __stdout;
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

The error is:

How can I fix this please?
