Hi all,
I am using yagarto ARMTools chain,

 Binutils-2.20
 Newlib-1.18.0
 GCC-4.4.2
 GDB-7.0.1

In my make file options(for CortexM3 processor,LPC17series),
-mcpu=cortex-m3 -mthumb mfpu=fpa (or) -mfpu=vfp

with this options My program going to hangs when i use simple float 
operations(covert float to int using type cast,substract float with 
integer etc.This is for supporting ftoa() api).

Same code working form me in following makefile options(ARM7 
processor,LPC23xx,21xxseries) in my another project,
-mcpu=arm7tdmi -mthumb-interwork.I havn't seen any issue past 6months.

Please guide me??

If any one already faced this issue please share your knowledge???

FYI:I am using LPC17 seires with FreeRTOS.

So why would you use -mfpu=fpa of vfp when a Cortex-M3 has neither an 
FPA not a VFP?  These settings will cause the generation of instructions 
for a math co-processor that does not exist.
