#pragma CODE_SEG no effect

[DavidoBG]

I would like write my application SW between E000->F7AD and the bootloader application between F7AD->FFAD. So i modify prm file like this:

/* This is a linker parameter file for the mc9s08qe8 */

NAMES END /* CodeWarrior will pass all the needed files to the linker by command line. But here you may add your own files too. */

SEGMENTS /* Here all RAM/ROM areas of the device are listed. Used in PLACEMENT below. */
    Z_RAM                    =  READ_WRITE   0x0060 TO 0x00FF;
    RAM                      =  READ_WRITE   0x0100 TO 0x025F;
    ROM                      =  READ_ONLY    0xE000 TO 0xF7AD;
    BOOTLOADER               =  READ_ONLY    0xF7AE TO 0xFFAD;
    ROM1                     =  READ_ONLY    0xFFC0 TO 0xFFCD;
 /* INTVECTS                 =  READ_ONLY    0xFFCE TO 0xFFFF; Reserved for Interrupt Vectors */
END

I put in my .c file

#pragma CODE_SEG

Bootloader SW

#pragma ROM

But when i open my .s19 file, the data position begins 0xE000 to E150 (150 Bytes is sizeof all code). I would like see

0xE000->E100 (100 bytes size of application SW )

and

0xF7AD->0xF7FD (50 bytes size of bootloader SW )

Do you have any idea my issue? i use MC9S08QE8

Thanks David

Hi, your prm looks good, but try to do this: In you prm add in PLACEMENT section a entry like this

PLACEMENT 
 .
 .
 .
   BOOTLOADER_CODE INTO BOOTLOADER;

END

and in your .c do this:

#pragma CODE_SEG BOOTLOADER_CODE
Bootloader Sw
.
.
.
#pragma CODE_SEG DEFAULT

if you have a header file when are declarated your function, you need also put pragma statements to enclose function declaration

Check placement of your function in file .map of the project

It's OK with into to placement section

Thanks very much

One thing which comes to my mind is that the entry point of the application (INIT in prm, defaults to _Startup) is moved into a special section, not sure out of my mind what the section name is, I guess .init (there is also a synonym with no dot).
In this case, try:

Code:

> .init, BOOTLOADER               =  READ_ONLY    0xF7AE TO 0xFFAD;
