We have an older project at my work where we use the TI BSL loaded to load code over RS-232. Our code is broken up into two categories a configuration file and a firmware file and they are both loaded together.
The configuration file is a list of constants stored in flash and specific addresses and they are unique for each of our customers, but the firmware file is the same. The code we have now was written with IAR, and I'm trying to port it over to mspgcc. What I'd like to be able to do is compile the firmware with the linker script specifying certain addresses of data, but I don't want the compiler to actually put any data at those locations. For the configuration, I'd like to just compile the constant variables without firmware. The problem I see is that GCC initializes the constant variables in the FW which I have to go and manually delete because those constants are loaded from a separate txt file. I'd like to have that more streamlined technique to build both. Any ideas on the best way to do that? thanks adam This email, including any attachments and files transmitted with it, are for the sole use of the intended recipient(s) to whom this email is addressed, and may contain confidential and/or privileged information.
