Hello

First which processor are you targeting (HC08, HC12, Coldfire, ...)?

Then I am not sure I understand the question. Are you looking for a way to generate an S record file for your ANSI C application?

If not can you please explain what you want to do.

Hello

I assume you are using CodeWarrior for HC08 and you are building from the IDE.

If this sis the case, in order to generate an Intel Hex file rather than a S record file at the end of the build process, do the following:

- Open the file burner.bbl from your project in an edit window.
- Change the line "format=motorola" to "format=intel"
- Change the line OPENFILE "%ABS_FILE%.s19" into
OPENFILE "%ABS_FILE%.hex"
- Save the changes and force a rebuild of the project.

A Intel Hex file will be generated at the end of the build process rather than a S record file.

I hope this helps.

Hello

I have checked the Reference manual for HC08QB4.

According to the reference manual there is Flash between 0xEE00 and 0xFDFF on HC08QB4. So there is memory there.

Around disassembling an Intel Hex file you can do that as follows:

- Start a Window Explorer
- Browse for {Install}\PROG directory
- Start decoder.exe
- Select "Decoder" -> "Options"
- Switch to "Input" Tab
- Check the "Set Processor" options and specify HC08 in the edit box on the bottom of the dialog.
- Click OK to close the dialog
- Select "File" -> "Decode"
- Browse for your Intel Hex file. The decoder will generate a file with extension .lst containing the disassembly listing.
