Debug files

#1 Post by spectric » 05 Jun 2023 11:22

Hi all

I am using the Mikro pro compiler for the dsPic. I have access to some files produced by a freind who is using the MPlab X IDE and XC compliler. I only have access to the Hex file which is not a problem but the other file is an ELF file which is a debug file and I do not know if this will be usable in the Mikroe enviroment. If not what debug file is produced / used by Mikroe ?

thanks Roy
all the best Roy

Hi Roy,

the ELF file format not in particular a debug file, but it is a relocatable file ( address of code is not fixed ), whereas
the HEX file is typically a fixed address file.
You may use some ELF to HEX converter.
