No .s19 file

[juliancox]

This appears to be a recurring problem for me. Everything is fine until, for no apparent reason, CW 11(and CW 10.7) for S08 will not generate a S19 file. If i enable the option in the debug settings I can get a Sx file but I need a abs.s19 file to use with my Cyclone. I have checked the burner.bbl file and the makefile and there appears to be no difference between a project that creates the S19 file and a project that does not. If I disable the s-record option in the build settings I get nothing.

As an alternative to throwing my computer off a very high building, can I use the burner in a stand-alone mode to create a s19 file.

By the way, the only solution in the past has been to create a new project and cut and paste the source files.

Hi Erich,

Using the Burner (in GUI mode) gave me a quick solution - so thanks. However, you may be interested in the following: -

Once I confirmed that the s19 file was correct I repeated the exercise with the output file destination in the Flash folder of the project (where it would have been if it was working correctly). I then closed and re-opened CW and the s19 file was there. I then made a change to the source code and carried out a Build of the project. Surprise!!!!!!! The last line in the Console window showed that the Burner had be called and a new updated s19 file had be generated.

Hi Julien,

if that file exist on disk, it might be that the Eclipse view did not show it? You might need to do a 'Refresh' (F5) (context menu on that folder).

The other thing you could check is that if your refresh policy is referring your project (and not something else), see https://mcuoneclipse.com/2015/06/06/eclipse-project-refresh-policy-broken-incremental-build-with-ext...

I hope this helps,

Erich

Hi Julian,

maybe this is your problem:
