How to include unused rtshc12.c.o (ansixbi.lib) and rtsxgate.cxgate.o (ansi_xgi.lib) functions into object code?

Hi,

I am working with a MC9S12XEP100 multiple application image bootloader project. In the future I might want to use more functions from the ansixbi.lib and ansi_xgi.lib libraries. However, my bootloader cannot update that part of the code.

Is there a way to:

1) Force all/part of unused functions of ansixbi.lib and ansi_xgi.lib libraries to be placed in the object code?

2) Place ansixbi.lib and ansi_xgi.lib functions to another segment than the default NON_BANKED segment?

I had similar problems regarding datapage.c, but it was possible to include all of its functions by adding to the prm file:

ENTRIES

datapage.c.o:*

END

BR,

Timo

regarding to your questions:

1. you can add the unused function to ENTRIES section in prm file:

ENTRIES

function_name

END

2. user need to modify lib source code. Not possible with only lib file.

Ah, that's true. I can add every function from the libraries to the ENTRIES.

Thank you!
