Hi Folks,

My friend has Code Composer Studio (CCS) license. He compiled without debugging 
and no optimization. Code size (ROM) is only 35 KB. This is good for 
MSP430G2955 that has 56 KB of Flash.

I compiled the same code using mspgcc, I get the following (-g -Oo):

/usr/lib/gcc/msp430/4.6.3/../../../../msp430/bin/ld: lpwmn.elf section `.text' 
will not fit in region `rom'

If I remove -g option and optimize for size (-Os), then I can get it down to 32 
KB. Problem is I can't do debugging in this case. Am I missing some trick or is 
CCS compiler doing something smart?

Arvind
