Custom linkage when using Processor Expert

I've been using a modified linker file on a project.  One thing that's a little painful is I have to keep "Freeze Code Generation" turned on to keep it from overwriting my linker file.  The other painful thing is if I have to make a change in Processor Expert, I have to enable code generation again, make a backup copy of my linker file, let it overwrite the linker file when it builds, let it fail to build because the linker doesn't know what to do with the sections I've defined, turn off the code generation, copy my linker file back over, then build again.  Is there some way to either tell Processor Expert to preserve the linker file, or add your own linker directives?

Hi,

You need to set the Generate linker file to NO in the Build options tab of the CPU component.
