8.1i EDK - The GNU software compiler "-B" option does not work

Description

Keywords: GNU, GCC, compile, search, path

Under Set Compiler Options->Paths, the -B option does not work.

I specify the path "my_project", and the make file contains:

TESTAPP_PERIPHERAL_CC_SEARCH = -Bmy_project

This variable is never used, and the final GCC invocation does not include the switch.

Solution

The -B switch has been deprecated, so the tools will ignore its use. The switch will be completely removed from the software in a future release.
