Using NowECC to generate linkable output?

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: NOWECC

Hi,

I'm trying to get NowECC to give me a library file that I can use to link back into our firmware image and I'm missing something about how this is supposed to work.  I can feed an S-record file into the tool and it can output the ECC data to an S-record just fine.  When I try to get a linkable file output using -L, it seems to ignore the option and still gives just the S-record format output.  If I specify the -N option, it says "Ignoring the root name command since the output file is not in COFF/ELF format."  So is it possible to input an S-record file and output an ELF file that I can link back into the build that generated the S-record input file?  OR, do I need to input an ELF file version of my build and let the nowECC tool _add_ a section for ECC to it when it outputs?

Thanks,

Marco
