No object file created for new c source file in project.
This problem is solved.
I right clicked the file in the Eclipse Project Explorer and selected Properties => Resurce (tree).
Under the Resource group to the right three types of paths, these are labled “Path”, “Location”, and “Resolved location”.
To the right of Path is the path and filename as it exists in the Eclipse file system.
To the right of Location is the Windows Operating System’s path to the file, using the Eclipse variable PROJECT_LOC. The value of this is the path to the project, and so makes rest of the path relative the project location.
To the right of “Resolved location” is the Windows Operating System’s path to the file. The filename at the end of this path did not have the .c file extension. The filename as it appeared in the Eclipse Project Explorer did have a .c extension. The actual file in the Windows Operating System did not, and so was not considered c source code, and so was not compiled
In the Windows Explorer I added the .c file extension. In Eclipse Properties for the file I clicked on Edit and added the .c file extension. The files was included in compilation after this.
