Compiler/TMS320F28335: Can i export .out file( COFF file format)'s Symbol name and Symbol Address?

Han SeungJae said:

1. The .out file is called a COFF file, does it differ from the typical COFF file?

I'm not sure what counts as a typical COFF file.  You will probably find the answer in the article A Brief History of TI Object File Formats.

2. Can I compile CCS without symbol information and mapping files in .out files?

Consider compiling normally, then using the strip utility strip2000.  Search for it in the C28x assembly tools manual.

3. I want to extract the symbols from the COFF file, without using the ofd tool.

   Is there any way ?? If possible, I want to work through coding.

   Or, do you disclose some major source codes that extract symbol information?

We do not supply any source code in any form that allows you to directly process the binary COFF file to extract information like the symbol table.  Instead, we provide utilities like ofd2000 and nm2000.  You can also see the symbols in the linker map file.

Thanks and regards,
