I am looking for the format of the file generated by the hex2000 utility when the --load_image option is selected. This format is efficient (i.e. not ASCII) and has all the information required for a custom boot loader to parse an image stored in flash and copy it from on-board flash to RAM. I can 'guess' at the format but I would really like to be certain. I can easily write a parser for the --load_image format if I only knew exactly what the format is. If there is sample code, that would also be sufficient.
I would appreciate this not turning into a long discussion of why I need it, just suffice it to say that I will be putting multiple application images in the on-board flash with a table (also in flash) to indicate which ones are valid and where they are, so I need a good way to store them efficiently and boot the selected image.
By the way, I have used the rprc file format with the c6x before and thought that maybe I could use the same utility to convert the F28335 .out file to .rprc format but that utility is written for 8-bit data so the output file only includes half of the F28335 data.
