MSP430FR5962: Two project combining issue

Manish_Thakur

Part Number: MSP430FR5962

Hi all,

There is a requirement that we need a bootloader and separate application, so for that I have created a project where I have modified cstartup.s43 file, and created two workspaces. Application memory starts from 0x4000-EFFF and bootloader memory from F000-0xFF80. Now I need when we reset the application application first perform bootloader actions and then perform application memory. Can anyone say how we can merge the two workspace bin file.

Hello Manish,

Looking through some old E2Es, it seems that it is technically possible to combine .out files, although I'm not familiar personally. I found previous compiler engineers pointing people to the partial (incremental) Linking section of the Assembly language tools user's guide: https://www.ti.com/lit/ug/slau131r/slau131r.pdf

If that doesn't help, I may need to move this thread to the Code Composer Studio forum to see if they can provide some insight.

Thanks,

Hello JD,

I have resolved my own query the point is we need to make two different projects and specify a bootloader at the 0xF000-0xFF7F location and give the defined address at cstartup.s43 file. Even that file also needed to be modified and keep the other main application as it is. I have gone through lots of documents and learned this and I was able to successfully do it.
