I'm using the BL51 linker/locator to locate (without code banking using the ROM(SMALL) directive) a piece of code at a specific location using the CODE control. The code I'm trying to locate a piec of code without a main function -- it will be called by a bootloader at a later time. I can locate the code anywhere above 0x4000 without problems. If I try locating the code below 0x4000 (e.g. CODE(0x2000)) the linker ignores the command and locates it at 0x4000 by default. Is there a way to change this?
Are you using the evaluation software? Jon
Ah yes. I'd forgotten to upgrade the evaluation version to the full version. After doing so, everything works fine. Thanks for pointing this out! Just out of curiosity, why is that part of the evaluation version?
I think it's to stop you getting a complete free development system for use with the smaller '51 variants with on-chip ROM - it forces you to use an off-chip ROM?
