Hi All,
CPU: STM32F10x cortex-m3. Keil compiler.
I wonder if anyone can point me in the right direction?
What I need to do is build a system that is made up of a core with modules that will be plugged in at a later point in time. I.E. the core will be compiled and run able, the product will then be configured for it specific variation by placing modules in memory for it to use. The modules will not be dynamic loaded, apart from at initial boot up where these modules will be resolved and hooked in.
The core will consist of the RL-RTX os, some basic house keeping tasks and base functionality that is able to hook into the added modules.
I guess in GNU/linux Id be using insmod or in windows a DLL, SMX by micro devices has dynamic load module facility which I think is a bit more than I need.
Any ideas how to do this?
Regards, DaveE
Thanks, you have confirmed the problems that were on my mind.
need or want, I want(ed) to do it because I need to find a way of controlling variants of a product without having all variants either built in or requiring a build and link stage with the core using #defines to control the variations.
I also needed to find a way of changing langauges without rebuilding or raw hacking of the binary image. I can see however that a vector table to a fixed area would work for the language strings though.
Thanks again
