Getting code built with GCC4MBED to run on custom target

I've developed a custom target and can use the online tool to build a blinky app. I program the microcontroller by copying the bin file onto the mounted USB volume. It blinks.

I take the same code, run "make clean lpc11u37", copy the resulting bin file with the same method to the microcontroller but no blinky.

For the online compiler, lacking an LPC11U37, I build with LPC11U24. For GCC4MBED, I made changes to support the LPC11U37FBD48/401 which is the part I have designed in.

As this is my first offline attempt with GCC tools, I think I must be missing something. Any tips?

Thanks.

Hello Kevin,
Unfortunately I'm not familiar with GCC4MBED so I'm not able to help you with that, but do you have any specific reason to use GCC4MBED? If I understand correctly you replaced the binary mbed library in your project with source files and added a custom target support. So why don't you simply export your working project from the online compiler (Ctrl+E) for the GCC (ARM embedded) toolchain and then compile it offline?
