Greetings, I hope this email finds you well. I have an issue while compiling and generating (.elf) file. At the end of the (.elf) file we put 2 bytes CRC. I found that the 2 bytes are not flashed correctly while using (.elf) file, meanwhile the 2 bytes are flashed when using (.hex) file. The (.elf) file symbols are used for debugging but the (.hex) file can not be used for debugging. These commands are used for generating (.elf) file: $(EXECUTABLE_FILE): $(COBJECTS) @echo $(SEPARATOR) @echo Linking to $(EXECUTABLE_FILE) @$(LD) -o $(EXECUTABLE_FILE) $(COBJECTS) $(LDFLAGS) These commands are used for generating (.hex) file: $(HEX_FILE): $(EXECUTABLE_FILE) @objcopy -O ihex $(EXECUTABLE_FILE) $(HEX_FILE) @Tools/HexView/hexview.exe $(HEX_FILE) /S /FA /AfFF /XI -o $(HEX_FILE) @Tools/HexView/hexview.exe $(HEX_FILE) /AR:0x8000-0x1FFDF /S /CS13:@0x1FFE4 /XI -o app_crc.hex @Tools/HexView/hexview.exe /MO:$(HEX_FILE)+app_crc.hex /s /XI -o $(HEX_FILE) @rm -rf app_crc.hex The CRC shall be flashed at address : 0x1FFE4 Can you help in this regard?
