Hi i am currently programming 8051 using assembly language. I have installed uvision but i could not creat hex file with it. It just creates the obj file. so can any one plz tell me how to create a hex file which can be downloaded to 8051.
[...] Luckily I stumbled across [...] Well, if that's not a perfect example backing the claim that there's no such thing as an intuitive user interface, per se, nothing is. ;-) The position of that switch is actually perfectly logical --- given there's a tab on that dialog called "Output", that's where this must be. And since you can't make a .hex file if you're building a library, "create .hex file" has every right to be a sub-option of "create executable file". So allow me to play Andrew's part here and say that if you find yourself falling into this kind of IDE trap, that's a hint it's time to work through the Tutorial once more.
Perhaps I also need to check the In Cheek box on the Tongue tab.
