SPC58ECxx C++ std::string throws linker errors
I'm working on a state machine for a console application, and I would like to use std::strings in C++, as they are much nicer to work with than C-style strings.
Including the string library does not result in errors, but when I call string objects in the code I start to get errors. Here's an example of the code I am using:
//const char* output; //No errors in c-style strings
std::string(output); //Compiles, but results in linker error
switch(mState)
{
case MAIN_STATE:
output = "\r\nmain->";
break;
case CAN_STATE:
output = "\r\ncan->";
break;
case UART_STATE:
output = "\r\nuart->";
break;
case GPIO_STATE:
output = "\r\ngpio->";
break;
default:
output = "\r\nMAIN->";
break;
}
//Print(output); //No errors with C-style Strings
Print(output.c_str()); //Compiles, but results in linker errorAs I indicated in the code comments, any time I call a function from the <string> library, I get the following linker error:

07:42:06 Build Failed. 5 errors, 0 warnings. (took 9s.6ms)Interestingly, I've also noticed these kinds of errors with other standard C++ Libraries like <array> or <vector>.
These are my current linker settings:
What do I need to change in my linker settings to get the standard C++ libraries to link/build correctly?
