Compiler/TMS320TCI6487: How to get fully the same image when build at different time

Part Number: TMS320TCI6487


Tool/software: TI C/C++ Compiler

Hi,

My customer got two images at different time with the same code on same machine, they used the objdiff tool to compare the two images and it remind they are same, but the compared result is not same with the beyond compare to compare the binary files directly. My customer want know what detail information is different in the two images when built at different time, and if any way to make the binary image fully same when using beyond compare, for example through add some compiler options?

As I know the different information include timestamp, and is there any other more?

Thank u very much,

BR,

Andy

    Unfortunately, no.

    To be honest, we don't know.  We never made an attempt to determine all the possible differences in that case.

    The recommended solution for comparing TI object files is objdiff.  Given that solution is available, we never pursued questions like how to make the entire binary the same, or what differences result from given build scenarios, etc.

    Thanks and regards,
