How to make elf output format file to .bin format file in CCS 4.1?

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: OMAP3530, DM3730

Hi,all

I am using CCS4.1 to develop omap3530 programe. 
In my CCS build setting, the Output Format is set to "eabi (ELF)",
my question is how to make the output format to ".bin" format
which can run in the ram directory.

  • Are you building for the ARM or the DSP?

    If you are building for the ARM and you want to generate an executable that can be run from Linux you need to use an appropriate ABI, I am under the impression the EABI setting you have is suitable, but I have never tried doing this. Alternatively you could build with another tool set (i.e. Code Sourcery GNU) that I am certain supports Linux executables.

    I will move this thread over into the CCS forum for further comment.

  • Bernie,Thanks for your reply:)

    I am building the ARM programe.
    I hava solve the problem by using "tiobj2bin.bat"  to make a bin file.
     

    "tiobj2bin.bat"  locate "\Texas Instruments\ccsv4\utils\tiobj2bin"

  • hey I used tiobj2bin.bat to get a .bin file in ccs4. After loading it to sdram of dm3730(0x82000000), we tried to run it using u boot(go command,at the c init address and entry point address seperately,mentioned in the map file) but it didnt get executed in both the cases. Is the bin file self sufficient??? or do we have to load any other files?? regards shashank
