------------------------------------------

             Summary: Test package lflags ignored by `newt test`
                 Key: MYNEWT-858
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MYNEWT-858
             Project: Mynewt
          Issue Type: Bug
      Security Level: Public (Viewable by anyone)
          Components: Newt
            Reporter: Christopher Collins
            Assignee: Sterling Hughes
             Fix For: v1_3_0_rel


If you add the following to a test package:

{noformat}
pkg.lflags:
    - "-foo"
{noformat}

and then test the package with `newt test`, the flag does not get passed to gcc during linking.

Newt currently only reads lflags from the following package types:
* target
* app
* bsp
* compiler

At the very least, the test package's lflags should be used when a unit test is linked via {newt test}.  Alternatively, it may make more sense to gather the lflags from all constituent packages during the link phase.
