How to avoid resolving extern symbol?

Asked by naseeam in C Programming Language

Softwar Library externs a symbol something like follows:

extern const some_struct_type rtos_config;

My application links this software library.  During link time I get the following error:

"error:  external symbol not defined:  rtos_config"

I don't need to use this symbol in my application.  Is there any shortcut way to get around this link error.?  How can I define it in my application without populating all the members of the structure?

thanks.Start Free Trial
