I'm installed the CODESYS Control for Linux SL package and am trying to use the Extension API to call a simple C function. When I get to the step to run "make all" on the Linux machine, I get the error:
build interface header: out/CmpFirstTestItf.h from CmpFirstTestItf.m4
ERROR: This functionname does not contain _cext (this is mandatory, see help for details):
DEF_API(void',CDECL',external_struct__fb_init',(external_struct_fb_init_struct *p)',1,0x1F77E075,0x00000001)
Why does "Generate Runtime System Files" create a function that does not have cext in the name?
Hey schnepper,
when i look into your c-file, i would say that only the main-function is declared with cext-addendum in your codesys-library-project. all yöur funtions in library has to be the cext-addendum when the external implementation is activ.
if i remeber right, methods and other subelements dont need that, but every base-elements

If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
Solved: I started from a fresh project and everything worked. I had a Function Block in the project at one point and deleted it. I think Codesys doesn't fully clean up on deletes.
