Hi Team,

Open ROV when debugging. Then error appeared:

What is the reason?

Thanks & Regards

The error message says ROV only supports Elf object files, so I assume the .out that being used is compiled for COFF. Would you be able to change it in the project properties from COFF to Elf?

Alternatively, you can try ROV Classic instead. I don't think it has this Elf requirement.

Whitney,

After the customer modify the object files from COFF to Elf, this warning appeared after compiled:

warning #1268-D: null (zero) character in input line ignored
line 1: error #7: unrecognized token

And the customer doesn't find the ROV Classic in CCS10.

Thanks & Regards

I'm not sure what would cause that. Can I get a bit more context? What file was this error coming from? What does the line of code look like? There are some general COFF-EABI migration tips here:

I found ROV Classic in 10.4 and it's still available in 12.2, but maybe it was mistakenly removed at some point.
