MSP430: IAR Embedded Workbench error message: unable to open file `cl430`

Problem:
After compiling a MSP430 program the Linker of the IAR Embedded Workbench generates the following error message: unable to open file `cl430`

Solution:
In the IAR Embedded Workbench menu the correct linker file has to be defined. Please click on:
  • PROJECT
    • OPTIONS
    • XLINK
    • INCLUDE
    • XCL FILE NAME

Check `Override default` and enter the correct file name. Example for a Assembler program of the MSP430F149: $TOOLKIT_DIR$\icc430\MSP430F149A.xcl Example for a C program of the MSP430F149: $TOOLKIT_DIR$\icc430\MSP430F149C.xcl Please check also the C-SPY settings for correct device description file. Please click on:
  • PROJECT
    • OPTIONS
    • C-SPY
    • SETUP
    • CHIP DESCRIPTION

Check `Use description file` and enter the correct file name. Example for MSP430F149: $TOOLKIT_DIR$\cw430\msp430F149.ddf The FET (or EVK) User`s Guide gives a detailed description of this task. The User`s Guide is available on
