Arm compiler generates axf file as executable .is it same as hex file.How to calculate checksum for AXF file and how to put checksum value in the specified location of a memory.
The axf and hex files are different. Axf files contains debugging information . Using uvision you may turn on the option to generate hex output also or other way is to use "fromelf" utility. Using this utility you an generate the hex file as well as binary file. The bin file may be used for checksum calculation.

Thank you for the reply.How to calculate checksum for .AXF file.Checksum is required for code validation.

The only method i think would be to convert the axf file into bin file using "fromelf" and calculating the checksum.Then appending it to the bin file and convert it back into hex.
