Running Assembly program with MSP432 in CCS

Paulo,
I am not aware of any examples, but I will look. Please refer to section 1.8 of SLAU356 (www.ti.com/.../slau356a.pdf) as well as the ARM Cortex-M4 Technical Reference Manual.

Regards,
Chris

You need to look for "assembler", not for "compiler".

True, most compilers include assemblers. But those assemblers are meant to finish the job of compilation are may not be suitable for direct usage.

Both compilers and assemblers are just translators. Usually, a compiler translate c or other "language" source code into assemble code. And assemblers translate assemble code into native machine code.

The 'Prevailing wind" is, you should not use assemblers, because it is "difficult to understand and debug".

I am Chinese in origin and my mothers-tongue is Chinese. Years ago (in the 1970) I visited China. They provide me with a translator and asked me to speak English only. Maybe they thought Chinese is difficult to understand and error prong? My experience was, the translator made lots of mistakes and that was why his Chinese was difficult to understand and debug.

Thank you, looking forward to it. The technical reference manual describes most instructions, and the other assembler pdf I found on TI gives some directives I can use... but what I really need is how to set the entry point for which to load the program into the RAM.

Best, Paulo

Here is example for TIVA, but I guess that should work for MSP432 too.

This is not assembly but discusses how to load executable code into RAM - trying to address previous post/comment about loading the program into RAM. e2e.ti.com/.../1793542
