Hi David,
Is it possible for the GCC tools to generate a
checksum from the generated code and embed it into the
hex file at a specific address? I've done this in the
past using the IAR compiler and need it for the
bootloader to check the new code being loaded into
flash.
The tool I have used for this (not GCC though) is srecord which can
manipulate hex and binary files that are output from GCC.
See
http://srecord.sourceforge.net/
Thank you!
No problem.
