hi Kext

CodeWarrior generates 2 files a Srecord file and an abs file.

The Srecord file contains only the code to be downloaded in the chip whereas the abs will contains the code and debug info.

Generally the abs file is used in development phase in order to debug the application.

Srecord is used for final download and or production.

If you've only the Srecord file we don't have solution to generate the source code. We can  not do that because S19 file is OPTIMIZED code that doesn’t include C source code information.

However with the decoder tool you can have the assembly instruction of your application.

To that you must launch the decoder.exe tool in the \prog folder.

Under Decoder ¦ Option Settings |input tab, you must define the Object file format and set processor. For instance

            -fs: object format is srecord file

            -Proc=HC08: processor is HC08 derivative

The decoder will generate a file containing all assembly instruction for your application.

In case you've the abs file, with the same tool decoder.exe with the same options you will get the source code you will have in your application.

If your application was wrote in C the decoder will generates the C source.

For details please refer to the manual:

search this doc with keyword “Decoder”

Have a great day,

hi Hext.

the tool decoder.exe is included in CW10 install folder C:\Freescale\CW MCU v10.6\MCU\prog which is free.

I also found a related article that was written by Erich. Hope this can help you either.

can this help?
