C51: ?C?COPYXX UNRESOLVED EXTERNAL FROM EVAL VERSION


Information in this article applies to:

  • C51 Version 5.20 Evaluation

SYMPTOMS

When I build my project, I get an unresolved external error for the following segment:

?C?COPYP2

What does it mean? What am I doing wrong?

CAUSE

You are attempting to use dual data pointers. However, the evaluation version of the tools does not include the data copying libraries that utilize dual data pointers. Any of the following segment names may appear for the same reason:

  • ?C?COPYAMD
  • ?C?COPYA2

In addition, the evaluation version of the tools does not include copy routines that utilize 517. The following segment name appears in the Unresolved external error:

  • ?C?COPY517

RESOLUTION

Select C51 Compiler Options from the Options menu and click on the Chip tab. From the drop down list choose 'Standard 8051' to disable dual data pointers and the use of 517.
