Can I change the location of INIT.A51?

Hi,
How can I locate the INIT.A51 code at e.g 0x1000?
Is it a usual segment?
Does the INIT.A51 do anything except initialize static vars?

(The problem is that I want to use a bootloader and 2 images. First the bootloader's startup and init.a51 code will run, then the bootloader code and then I want it to jump to the correct image and initialize the static variables of the specific image chosen...)

Thanks

  • no; use the target options dialog ("Project->Options for target"). But you can indeed override the settings of the target tab using the "Use Memory Layout from Target Dialog", to arrange it all in a linker scatter file.

  • The target options dialog has a few tabs.
    In the 'Target' tab there is no place to decide the location of the code..Only a checkbox that decides if you want to locate the ROM/XRAM ON chip (addresses are given and you can't change them...) or you can set EPROM off chip code and xram addresses.So I couldn't find what you meant...

    Did you mean I should use the off chip ROM memory areas and give begin addresses and sizes that are on-chip?

    Thank you
